He’s been out of the limelight for
a while but that hasn’t stopped Rob Kardashian doing the most noble
thing ever, offering his brother-in-law and best friend Lamar Odom his
kidney.
Khloe Kardashian’s brother came out of
hiding to offer his kidney after it emerged that the seriously ill
former NBA star may need an organ transplant.
Whether they are exact matches is yet to
be confirmed, but sources have said that Rob is willing to undergo
medical tests to find out.
One source told Daily Mail Online:
‘Rob is willing to do whatever it takes to help Lamar recover. If that
means donating a kidney then so be it, Rob has a big heart and he’s
willing to step up to help his friend.’
US show, The Doctors, will feature a segment tomorrow suggesting that Rob will offer his kidney to save Lamar, if needed.
Lamar is believed to be undergoing regular
kidney dialysis treatment at Cedars-Sinai Hospital in LA as he tries
to recover from a $79-000 three day drink and drug-fuelled binge with
two prostitutes.
The former NBA star, 35, was found unresponsive at the Love Ranch brothel in Las Vegas over a week ago.
Police were told by the brothel that he had used cocaine and sexual-enhancement supplements during his short stay.
He suffered several strokes and multiple
organ failure, and while other organs have returned to functionality,
doctors believe his kidneys are still failing.
Rob has reportedly been ‘instrumental’ in Lamar’s recovery this past week.
He has been sharing a number of Instagram posts, which is unusual for the usually-private former reality star.
A week ago, he posted a picture of him and Lamar on his Instagram with the caption: ‘Praying nonstop for my brother!!’
Rob and Odom grew close when Rob lived with him and Khloe and since their split, he was hit the hardest hit.
It is believed that he has been battling depression and a number of personal issues.
