Let’s pray this report is sincere as it will give everyone hope that Lamar Odom can beat this! Entertainment Tonight is reporting that Odom not only opened his eyes but was able to communicate to people in his hospital room.

*UPDATE*
Ok, so we have a more reliable source that Lamar has in fact opened his eyes and been able to communicate. According to ESPN’s Ramona Shelburne, Odom is no longer using a breathing tube, although he is still wearing a mask and in critical condition.
She also said he was physically able to speak a few words, though she didn’t say what he said. Sources told ESPN that Odom’s condition had been improving slightly over the last 36 hours, but he remained sedated as doctors worked to make sure his organs functioned properly.
*END OF UPDATE*
Earlier today we reported that Odom’s condition was in “Dire straits” and doctors were feeling very bleak about any chance of recovery. The reports he has now been able to open his eyes and his heart was responding better can only mean great things as his family and fans continue to pray for him.
Here is what ET is reporting:
When asked if he wanted to see his children, the 35-year-old former NBA star communicated “Yes,” according to a source, though it is unclear if he spoke or used body language.
Odom has two children with ex-girlfriend Liza Morales — 17-year-old Destiny and 13-year-old Lamar Odom Jr. The three, along with Odom’s aunt JaNean, flew out of New York City on Wednesday to be by the basketball pro’s side at Sunrise Hospital in Las Vegas.
Let’s continue to pray for Odom and hope the source ET had for this is legit and not someone looking for headlines and attention like Jesse Jackson did the other day.
