LIL WAYNE OUT OF ICU Upgraded to Stable Condition

0318-lil-wayne-getty-3 (1)

Good news for Lil Wayne -- the rapper has finally been moved out of the Intensive Care Unit at Cedars-Sinai hospital in Los Angeles after doctors determined his condition has stabilized ... TMZ has learned.


Sources close to the rapper tell us ... Wayne has been moved into a "regular room" at the hospital and no longer needs intense, round-the-clock treatment after a suspected codeine overdose last week.

We broke the story ... doctors pumped Wayne's stomach at least 3 times after the rapper began experiencing severe and violent seizures. He had been in the ICU since Wednesday.

Now, we're told the 30-year-old has been walking around the hospital floor on his own -- accompanied by a team of bodyguards.

We're told he's also eating on his own ... and could even be discharged from the hospital in the near future

I hope he learns from this and gets his shit together. But I doubt it.

And as soon as he leaves — if he does leave — he will be right back on that sizzurp.

WTF is going on :( I hope he's OK.

Good for him. I wonder if TMZ was jut being overzealous/someone leaked them bad info or if Wayne was really in that bad of a condition and just recovered.
twowaymirrrors 18th-Mar-2013 10:00 pm (UTC)
It was probably some combination of bad info + him being in really bad condition
tragickingdomxo 18th-Mar-2013 10:10 pm (UTC)
I think the person who leaked the info might have gone overboard in making assumptions when he/she saw the priest coming in for Wayne.
ponpiri 19th-Mar-2013 02:12 am (UTC)
It sounds like they got the info right. Whoever leaked it to them was probably attending to Wayne. It was ym trying to cover up the real situation by saying he's chillin watching the damn game.

"The last rites are the last prayers and ministrations given to many Catholics when possible shortly before death."
They said he was given his last rites so they went way overboard saying he's basically dead when he literally got released a week later.
saybonjour 18th-Mar-2013 09:55 pm (UTC)
so did TMZ apologize for their oops moment or...?
cageyb 18th-Mar-2013 09:55 pm (UTC)
Guess TMZ is just gonna pretend they didn't say he was dead and being read his last rites, huh?

still laughing at the people who kept saying TMZ is never wrong.
__nocturna 18th-Mar-2013 10:20 pm (UTC)
ikr they are good, but definitely not infallible
cukoo4cocopuffs 18th-Mar-2013 10:42 pm (UTC)
I didn't think they said he was dead, just that he was given his last rites. We were with my great grandmother during her last rites five years ago when she was hit by a car............................and she's still alive today at 96yrs old.
sevenbeat 18th-Mar-2013 11:48 pm (UTC)
I think they never said he was dead, just being read his rites. Being read your last rites =/= death necessarily.
ponpiri 19th-Mar-2013 02:13 am (UTC)
They never said he was dead. And if they were wrong they would have taken their original post down. The only thing they changed about it was the last rites part.

Thank you princess

Ricky is such a doll
hippie_chick 18th-Mar-2013 09:57 pm (UTC)
And TMZ just ignores the fact that they reported him practically dead and being read his last rites, huh? No apology, nothing said about it?
pacificway 18th-Mar-2013 10:30 pm (UTC)
Your icon is so cute! It reminded me to find and bookmark this - I usually look it up once a year.

Stable, maybe, but I wouldn't be surprised if his brain is fried tbh
mikachanyo 18th-Mar-2013 10:17 pm (UTC)
did you read the post?. im thinking no.
hypnology 18th-Mar-2013 09:58 pm (UTC)
Glad he's okay, but isn't there some sort of law that if you end up in the hospital with illegal drugs in your system that they can put you into rehab or under arrest?
I know there's something about pregnant moms and drugs in their systems...
mirandagirll 18th-Mar-2013 10:16 pm (UTC)
I know if someone ends up in unstable condition in the hospitals with illegal drugs in their system, you still have to treat them and get them to stable condition first. I'm not sure what happens after that.

/sorry nursing school stuff is still on my mind
invisible_cunt 18th-Mar-2013 10:32 pm (UTC)
codeine technically isn't illegal though...
_autonomy 19th-Mar-2013 12:26 am (UTC)
without a prescription it is.
ahzuri 19th-Mar-2013 01:06 am (UTC)
They drug test you all through pregnancy (not sure if all states require it or do this) and if the baby has illegal drugs in their system when they are born they will keep the baby from you and call CPS. I don't know about other folks and illegal drugs though.
jennilee 19th-Mar-2013 03:30 am (UTC)
lmao no they do not

i work in a hospital and deal with overdoses all the damn time

these people can sign themselves out against medical advice as soon as they are able to
