The ex-partner of troubled Lamar Odom has arrived in Las Vegas with their two children to be at his bedside, as it was revealed he took cocaine with several prostitutes and wept uncontrollably about his 'broken life' just hours before he was discovered unconscious.  

Liza Morales, 36, and her two children with Odom - Destiny, 17, and Lamar Jr, 13 - left New York and were pictured arriving in Las Vegas last night looking sombre on their way to visit the hospital.

Odom, 35, who is fighting for his life after a four-day bender at a Nevada brothel, is believed to have taken a cocktail of illicit drugs during the binge.

Sources claim that his drugs relapse may have been made worse by an episode of the reality show Keeping up with the Kardashians, which aired on Sunday when he had already arrived at the brothel. 

During the episode his estranged wife Khloe Kardashian told the cameras she was worried Lamar would 'spiral' out of control after the drug-related death of his best friend.

Today she was at his bedside in a hospital in Las Vegas, where she had been joined by her pregnant sister Kim and her mother Kris Jenner. Her other sisters Kourtney Kardashian and Kendall Jenner also visited the hospital, while brother Rob Kardashian was also said to be on his way.  

Odom's estranged father Joe was also seen entering and leaving the hospital while Caitlyn Jenner is also on her way to Las Vegas according to E! News.

Khloe is making medical decisions for Lamar, according to TMZ, as even though the two signed divorce papers in July they have yet to be processed and the pair are still legally married. She has not left his side since arriving at the hospital Tuesday night.

Rob Kardashian - who is seldom heard from on social media these days - posted a photo of himself with Lamar on Wednesday

A source who spoke with E! News says that doctors found 'virtually every drug imaginable' in the 35-year-old's system. Other sources told TMZ that he suffered multiple strokes, is on kidney dialysis and has just a 50/50 chance of survival and will likely suffer brain damage. 

The 911 call made by a female from the brothel on Tuesday confirmed that Lamar had been taking cocaine before he was found on Tuesday, something he could be prosecuted for if it shows up in his blood test. Authorities have also not ruled out a possible suicide attempt.

The Kardashian family have rallied since Odom was found unconscious with Kylie Jenner abruptly ending a livestream video when the news broke and her sister Kendall tweeting 'please don't go' as she flew to Las Vegas from Shanghai fashion week.  

Kris Jenner posted a photo of Odom on Instagram on Wednesday, writing 'Please pray for Lamar' while Rob Kardashian also shared a photo of himself and the basketball star, writing 'Praying nonstop for my brother.' 

A source told People: 'They're pretty sure this is goodbye, but they're praying for a miracle. 

'They know that God has the power to heal him, but that's really the last hope at this point. This is really bad.'

It was supposed to be a celebratory week for the Kardashians, reports E! News, as Kim's baby shower was planned for this weekend.

She has now cancelled the event which had a Troop Beverly Hills theme  and was to be hosted by friend Allison Azoff.

Azoff is the same friend whose family hosted Khloe and Lamar's 2009 wedding at their Beverly hills estate.

The Rev. Jesse Jackson was one of Odom's many visitors on Wednesday and spoke to reporters outside the hospital, saying that the NBA star is recovering. 

He said: 'Apparently from what the doctor said, he was much better off today than yesterday. He at least has some responsiveness now. He's got tubes in him now but we felt inspired by his presence.'

'We're just holding hands and hoping he can bounce back,' Jackson added.

However, sources told TMZ that Jackson was only let in to pray next to Odom for three minutes and that he was 'flat-out wrong' about his condition.

The tragedy began to unfold when the 35-year-old visited legal brothel the Love Ranch Vegas in Pahrump, Nevada, alone on Saturday with witnesses saying he seemed 'lost'.

A source told Daily Mail Online: 'He was all freaked out about Khloe, fixated on her. He was showing the girls photos of them together and wanted to pour his heart out, he wasn't there just for sex, he needed a shoulder to cry on, companionship. He seemed lost. 

'It's not uncommon for celebrity clients to come in to unwind and have a girlfriend experience, they feel they can come here without being watched or followed.

'Lamar seemed really stressed out when he showed up, the girls tried to relax him and gave him a full body massage.

'But ultimately he wanted to party and would break down in tears from time to time. He told the girls he was a broken man, that he thought his life was a mess and he had no direction. 

'He was partying non-stop, using cocaine and taking Viagra and the girls saw other drugs paraphernalia lying around.

'It was sad to see, he was a shadow of the NBA star we all know and love.'

Odom was pictured being transported to Desert View Hospital around 4.16pm on Tuesday

Investigators are looking into whether Odom had visitors during his time at the brothel and what phone calls he may have made from there.

Detective Michael Eisenloffel, who is probing the incident, refused to say what items of the star’s were taken away after he was taken to hospital and if there were any drugs or drug paraphernalia found in the room.

In the first 911 recording, a woman at the brothel identifying herself as Misty says a 'client is not breathing'. She doesn’t identify him as Odom, saying he is a man in his late 20s.

She then calls again in a panic, worried he is 'not breathing'. She says he is unconscious and he has 'white stuff coming out of his mouth and blood out of his nose'.

In the third 911 recording, Richard Hunter, the brothel’s media director, tells the receiver: 'He is breathing regularly.

'He is snoring a little bit but he is breathing consistently.

'He has a little bit of fluid coming from his nose and mouth which has a red coloring to it. It’s not red like blood, it’s more pinkish.

'I saw it coming out of his nose. He is breathing with his mouth open a little bit, snoring and breathing regularly. I’m trying to speak to him and I am hearing a couple of whimpers.

'He is in a deep sleep for sure. I know CPR but there is no reason to do that if he is breathing regularly, right? He is on his right side.”

He is then told by the operator to move him onto his left side.

Mr Hunter then ends the call, and other voices can be heard as Lamar is manouvered on the bed onto his left side.

He says: 'I’ve got him on his left side. He has stuff coming out of his mouth and nose. He [Lamar] took Reload, a 72-hour strong sexual enhancer performer for men. He has taken a bunch of these. It was over a three-day period.

'You can add this to it. Someone just told me that he had some cocaine on him that he finished on Saturday.

'Since then he’s been alert, conscious and all that.'

The operator asks him, 'As far as you know, no cocaine since Saturday?'

Mr Hunter replies: 'That is correct.'

Brothel owner Dennis Hof says that over the weekend, Odom consumed 10 herbal Viagra pills called 'Reload' and two-thirds of a bottle of cognac, but says no drugs were found.

But Daily Mail Online understands that staff at the Love Ranch helped clear Odom's bedroom of any incriminating evidence of drug use before the authorities arrived.

The source said: 'The girls were freaked out. They had been partying with him and taking cocaine but he seemed fine. They didn't leave him alone very long, maybe a few hours.

'He could have shot some other drugs while they weren't there, but they can't be sure what he had taken. He didn't collapse while they were in the room.'

The source also adds the Love Ranch has a strict no drugs policy, but there's little staff can do about celebrity clients who bring their own stuff in.

They say Odom was a 'regular' visitor to the Love Ranch - contradicting its assertion he had never visited before - felt 'comfortable' as a guest and had stayed in the same VIP suite before.

'He felt he could really unwind here,' the source said. 'The girls were really looking after him, giving him full body massages and having long talks. Everyone is in shock.' 

Other sources told TMZ though that Odom was popping 8 to 10 of these pills at a time, and that he used regular Viagra as well.

While Viagra is a widely used and considered a generally safe drug, it does come with some rare side effects that can cause low blood pressure, heart attack and even stroke.

'Of course everybody's thinking, 'Well, maybe it was drugs.' We didn't see any effects of that,' Hof told E! 'He was going to sleep every night, and I don't think he was doing any drugs - although you never can tell. He was doing a herbal Viagra and a lot of it.'

Two prostitutes found the former NBA star unconscious and foaming at the mouth on Tuesday afternoon in a VIP house attached to the legal brothel.

'There was some blood coming out of him. The 911 operator asked them to turn him on his left side and of course he's a big guy, so it was a big challenge,' Hof said. 'They did that and a lot of stuff started coming out of him. He started throwing up and they say it was a horrifying sight...Then the paramedics took over.'

It's believed the last time someone saw Odom alert was at 6am on Tuesday as the partying ground to a halt, when one prostitute woke him up to tell him she was leaving. He was found unconscious later in the day, around 3:15pm.

Odom had been taken by ambulance to the nearby Desert View Hospital, where doctors intubated the basketball player, but he did not regain consciousness.

In a statement released to Daily Mail Online, Hof said Odom had arrived 'alone' at the ranch and spent some time socializing with some of the girls and staff.

'He was polite and reserved, and told multiple employees that he was there to get some privacy and spend time relaxing,' Hof said.

Odom had paid to stay in the VIP suite at the Love Ranch brothel in Pahrump, Nevada this weekend. He was found unconscious by two prostitutes

This is the VIP suite in a Nevada brothel where Lamar Odom was found unconscious. Lamar paid thousands of dollars to stay in the VIP suite at Dennis Hof's Love Ranch South, near Pahrump, for four days

'He largely kept to himself, and at no time did he engage in any drug use in the presence of anyone in the house. He did drink alcohol from our bar, and was taking some herbal sexual enhancement capsules.

'Around 3.15pm on Tuesday, several employees found him breathing but unresponsive and immediately called 911. An ambulance arrived shortly thereafter and transported him to Pahrump's Desert View Hospital.

'My staff cooperated fully with Nye County Sheriff's Department investigators who arrived on the scene after Lamar was transported for care.

'On behalf of my entire staff I would like to express my sincere concern for his well being and convey our best wishes for his full recovery.'

The basketball star is believed to have spent a five-figure sum after arriving alone at the Love Ranch's top suite on Saturday.

Love Ranch spokesman Richard Hunter told Daily Mail Online the NBA star had spent ‘multiples of five figures’ during his stay – but had appeared to want ‘companionship’. 

He said there was no appearance that he was suicidal, and said that police had taken away all the brothel’s stocks of Reload, the $4-a-pill herbal Viagra substitute which Odom had taken.

‘To my knowledge it was the first time he has ever been here,’ he said.

‘You’d think a celebrity in Vegas wouldn't have a problem finding people to hang out with but people feel there is a certain discretion here.

‘It was kind of unusual for a celebrity like him to come here alone. Usually the guys have one or two friends with them, then they separate when they get here into different areas.

Nye County Sheriff Sharon Wehrly spoke with the media on Wednesday revealing that blood had been drawn from Lamar and would be tested for drugs

‘Without knowing him personally, whatever was going on with his circle of friends in Las Vegas, it seemed that was something he wanted to get away from. I think it was obviously important for him to get here alone to a secluded place.'

The exact kind of stroke Odom is believed to have suffered involves a blood clot blocking blood flow to the brain, and is often a result of a cocaine overdose. The insider said that Odom started taking cocaine on Friday and 'chocked on his mucus'. 

That report is backed up by a source who said that the mucus in Odom's lungs was caused by smoking crack-cocaine. That source added that doctors also found opiates in the ex-NBA star's system and needle marks on one of his arms.

'I'm obviously hoping that he can pull through this, and that in some fortunate way this becomes the beginning of a different ending,' said good friend and New York Knicks coach Derek Fisher. 

Fisher, who played with Odom at the Lakers, later told CNN; 'Lamar Odom was one of the greatest people I've ever known. That's the way I see him. I don't see him through the prism of choices he has made. I view him through the heart and soul of the person he really is.'

Odom is the estranged husband of Khloe Kardashian (pictured together in May 2012), who filed for divorce in 2013 after marrying him in 2009

However, it appears the overdose was not intentional but possibly a result of Odom's history of drug abuse.

'The long term effects of his drug use have taken a toll on his body and the binge this time was too much to handle,' a source told E! 

WHAT HAPPENS TO YOUR BODY WHEN YOU OVERDOSE? 

In severe cases an overdose can induce a stroke, which occurs when the blood supply to the brain is interrupted or reduced

An overdose occurs where a person takes a quantity of drugs that their body is unable to cope with. 

There are a number of signs and symptoms that a person has overdosed, that depend on the type of drug used.

DEPRESSANT OVERDOSE

Opioids, benzodiazephines and alcohol are all depressants, which means they slow the central nervous system, affecting breathing and heart rate.

Too much of any of these drugs can kill or cause permanent brain damage.

Overdoing it on alcohol can cause seizures, irregular breathing and unconsciousness.

STIMULANT OVERDOSE

Where a person overdoses on amphetamines, such as speed and ice, they are at high risk of suffering a heart attack, stroke, seizure or drug-induced psychotic episodes.

Signs and symptoms include:

chest pain severe headache seizures difficulty breathing hallucinations unconsciousness

MIXING DRUGS

Taking a cocktail of different illicit drugs at once puts undue strain on the body, and dramatically increases the risk of overdose and the subsequent health complications.

Hypoxic brain injury, caused by a lack of oxygen to the brain, is often a consequence of heroin overdose.

The brain injuries can cause coma, seizures and in the worst cases, brain death.

The longer a person is not breathing, the more potential damage is done, because the brain is being deprived of oxygen.

WHAT TRIGGERS A STROKE?  

In severe cases, overdose can trigger a stroke, as well as heart attack, and severe respiratory problems.

Lifestyle factors including heavy or binge drinking and indulging in the use of illicit drugs, such as cocaine and methamphetamines, are both recognised by experts risk factors for stroke.

A stroke occurs when the blood supply to your brain is interrupted or reduced, experts at the Mayo Clinic state.

The condition can be caused by a blocked artery - known as an ischemic stroke - or the leaking or bursting of a blood vessel - known as a haemorrhagic stroke.

This CT scan, of an unnamed patient, reveals in yellow the area of the brain damaged by a stroke

A haemorrhagic stroke happens when a blood vessel in the brain leaks or ruptures.

Haemorrhages can be caused by a number of conditions that affect blood vessels, typically uncontrolled high blood pressure, as well as weak spots in blood vessel walls, known as aneurysms.

Within the definition of haemorrhagic stroke, there are two different kinds.

An intracerebral haemorrhage is where a blood vessel bursts and spills into the surrounding brain tissue, damaging brain cells.

Any brain cells that lie beyond the leak do not receive oxygenated blood and are therefore also damaged.

High blood pressure and trauma are among the factors that can trigger this type of bleed.

Meanwhile the second form is a subarachnoid haemorrhage.

This is where an artery on, or near the surface of the brain bursts and spills into the space between the surface of your brain and skull.

This type of bleed is often signalled by a sudden and severe headache.

A subarachnoid haemorrhage is commonly caused by an aneurysm bursting, and can cause the blood vessels in the brain to widen and narrow erratically, causing brain cell damage by restricting blood flow.

Kylie Jenner was pictured driving to a mall with her boyfriend Tyga on Wednesday, having abruptly ended a live webstream as news of Odom's incident broke on Tuesday

'There was some blood coming out of him. The 911 operator asked them to turn him on his left side and of course he's a big guy, so it was a big challenge,' Hof said of the moment Odom's body was found. 

'They did that and a lot of stuff started coming out of him. He started throwing up and they say it was a horrifying sight...Then the paramedics took over.' 

In an appearance on Nancy Grace, Hof said that two girls left Odom's room at 6am on Tuesday and that he seemed fine. Some of his staff returned at midday that day to bring by some food but said he was asleep. When some of his 'girls' stopped by three hours later, they found him unconscious and foaming from the mouth.

Odom had been taken by ambulance to the nearby Desert View Hospital, where doctors intubated the basketball player, but he did not regain consciousness.

He then had to be taken to the Sunrise Hospital in Las Vegas by ambulance for further treatment because at 6ft 10in he was too tall to be airlifted.

His former LA Lakers team mate Kobe Bryant has also been seen visiting the Sunrise Hospital after leaving his team's game against the Sacramento Kings early last night

The medical emergency is bringing even the most estranged members of the Kardashian clan together, including Khloe's brother Rob who has cut ties with his family in recent years. Rob lived with Khloe and Lamar during their short marriage, and had a close friendship with his then brother-in-law.

Eldest Kardashian sister Kourtney spent the morning in Los Angeles, taking her daughter Penelope and niece North West to ballet practice before later boarding a private plane out of town. 

Her recently estranged partner, Scott Disick, was also rumored to be rushing to Odom's side, but it's unclear if he is actually at the hospital since he has checked into the Cliffside Malibu rehabilitation center.

'Everyone has dropped everything to get there,' a source told People. 'There are a lot of calls and texts going back and forth as everyone is figuring out how they can help and be there for each other. They are asking their close friends to pray for Lamar, for healing and strength. 

'There is confusion about his condition, and they don't know the extent of his injuries, but I'll tell you this: they wouldn't just drop everything unless it was serious. 

'The family has been told that this isn't just a minor thing; that it was extremely serious.' 

Rev Jesse Jackson went to the hospital to pray for Odom on Wednesday, and said that he was improving. But sources tell TMZ that the reverend was only let in for 30 minutes and was 'flat-out wrong' about Odom's condition  

Dennis Hof, pictured, owner of the Love Ranch in Nevada says that two of his workers found Odom unconscious

Meanwhile speaking outside the facility, Odom's personal trainer Fareed Samad said he believed his client has suffered a 'momentary lapse' and had previously been working out for three hours a day in a bid to get fit.

He explained: 'This is all of a sudden. He was doing so well and was looking to get back to fitness. 

'Next thing you know someone calls and tells me he is unconscious.'

Asked why he thought the NBA star had gone to the brothel, Mr Samad added: 'When he wakes up we will find out.'

THE LOVE RANCH: LEGAL BROTHEL WHERE LAMAR ODOM WAS FOUND UNCONSCIOUS

Lamar Odom was found unconscious on Tuesday afternoon by two prostitutes named Ryder Cherry and Monica Monroe at Dennis Hof's Love Ranch, the legal brothel where he was partying for days.

The establishment in Crystal, Nevada, is just one of the sex-for-cash businesses in the state owned by the star of the HBO series Cathouse, who also has the Moonlite BunnyRanch in Carson City.

The Love Ranch, which is located about 80 miles north of Las Vegas, offers a number of services including 4-Play for Two, Oil Wrestling, Viagra and Vibrators, and the Girlfriend Experience (GFE). 

Hof, a 68-year-old Arizona native, bought the Love Ranch in 2010, Las Vegas Weekly reported. He owns nine brothels and a strip club in Nevada, according to CNBC.

Brothel owner Dennis Hof said Odom was discovered unconscious in his room by ranch workers Ryder Cherry and Monica Monroe who immediately called for a manager

In addition to a VIP section, the newly renovated Love Ranch features a bar and massage rooms. The Love Ranch and Hof's other brothels also have Jacuzzi rooms, hot tubs, and water rooms.

There are sometimes as many as 50 women working on-site at the 24-hour brothels and they are open 365 days a year in order to provide services with no appointment required.

Patrons are allowed to attempt to 'line up' one of the ladies beforehand online, but they can also just go to the bar and drink to try and find a date.

The ranch accepts credit and debit cards and shows up on bills as 'Cash Advance, Lake Tahoe'. Cash is also accepted and although tipping is not required, it is somewhat encouraged.

Between all of the ranches, including the Love Ranch, there are more than 500 licensed ladies and each one of the brothels typically services between 50 and 100 clients per day. Among the options for customers at the Love Ranch is the GFE, which is described on the brothel's website: 'Imagine a girl you can truly be yourself around. A lady you can share your erotic desires and intimate moments with. Someone who is always happy to see you, accepts you for who you are, as you are and is waiting to fulfill your every need - physical, emotional, sexual... with no strings attached.'

The women who work at the ranch are independent contractors so there are no set prices in place, but customers at the brothel reportedly have to shell out hundreds of dollars to get tended to.

Meanwhile. the basketball star's estranged father Joe claimed his son was drugged.

He told Hollywood Life: 'Somebody drugged my son. There’s no way he’s down there partying crazy like that. No way. I knew something was wrong because I’ve been calling him all day and he hasn’t been answering.

'I need all his fans to send him well wishes. If Khloe knows anything about this, please, tell her to call me. We all love Lamar and want him to pull through this.' 

Lamar's paternal grandmother Florence Odom has also spoken out about her grandson.

'I'm praying to God. I'm asking God to please let him survive,' she told NBC News.

Mrs Odom says the last time she saw her grandson was in March 2014 for a funeral.

'Lamar is special,' she added. 'He made himself a name all over the world. And he's just a cutie.'

Odom is a two-time NBA champion and won a Bronze medal at the 2004 Olympic in Athens.   

His former team the LA Lakers released a statement saying they had no other information and that none of their players had been in contact with Odom.

In 2009, Odom married Kardashian after a whirlwind romance, but by 2013 she had filed for divorce.

TMZ said at the time that Kardashian's decision to file for divorce was the result of Odom's usage of 'hardcore recreational drugs. 

Later that month Odom was arrested for DUI and refused to be tested, resulting in a one-year suspension of his driver's license.

He entered a rehab program shortly after but left just 24 hours later. The divorce was finalized this past July.

Despite the pair's divorce the two still spoke, with Kardashian's phone conversations with her ex the focus of an episode of Keeping Up With the Kardashians just two weeks ago.  

His NBA career has deteriorated over the past few years, and he was waived by the New York Knicks in July 2014.

Odom was also seen confronting Kardashian this past August shortly after the pair divorced, ambushing her early in the morning as she headed into a workout.   

TMZ reported that Odom screamed at Kardashian demanding she speak to him as she tried to make her way into a Soul Cycle class.

She ignored Odom who then grabbed her arm as she screamed; 'Get off of me, get off of me. Stop. Stop.'

When someone asked Kardashian if they should call the cops, Odom yelled at the individual; 'You're not going to call the cops on Lamar Odom.'

Kardashian then ran to her car and drove away from the scene. 

He was interviewed by TMZ shortly after and said: 'It's hard for me to keep my composure, to everybody that I know and that supports me I'm sorry but that's it, the dog has to fight back.

'Ya'll beat me down, degraded me, said I would do everything in the world. I'm a womanizer, a f**king drug addict, everything. I probably couldn't even get f**king hired at Home Depot right now because of how people look at me, it's over...If it happens again I will air everything out.' 

In June, Odom's best friend Jamie Sangouthai died at the age of 37 as the result of a flesh-eating disease caused by dirty needles.

Another friend, Bobby Heyward, died just days later of a reported drug overdose. 

Odom appeared to be doing well of recent, having started a new Instagram account just a few weeks ago and posting old photos and videos of himself playing basketball while also showcasing his healthy eating habits by sharing meal pictures. 

One of those photos showed him playing for the Los Angeles Lakers when they won the NBA Championship.

'Feels just like yesterday,' he wrote next to the picture. 

Khloe meanwhile had shared a photo of some of the books she was reading just before the tragic incident, including Black Butterfly.

Barnes & Nobles writes that author Robert Drake penned the book 'for those who have lost someone in death and in life.'

Odom had a difficult childhood but still managed to excel at basketball.

His father was a heroin addict and his mother died of colon cancer when he was just 12-years-old, but despite all this he went on to play basketball at the University of Rhode Island and then went pro.
