Rick Ross is reportedly in the hospital.
According to multiple reports, the rapper was rushed in on Thursday after someone discovered him unresponsive and “slobbing at the mouth.”
It was initially reported that Ross is dealing with pneumonia but TMZ now claims the issue may actually be heart related.
TMZ writes:
Rick is in a Miami area hospital getting treatment in the cardiac unit — a strong sign he might have suffered a heart attack which manifested itself as respiratory issues early Thursday morning.
TMZ broke the story … Rick was rushed to a hospital after a 911 caller reported he was unresponsive and “slobbing at the mouth.”
We’re told doctors have put him on something called ECMO, or extracorporeal membrane oxygenation. It’s a technique used to oxygenate his blood outside of his body, before it’s pumped back into his body.
It’s essentially a form of life support, and a clear sign of how dire Rick’s situation is right now.
I hope he pulls through.
Prayers up.
I thought he was taking better care of himself. He lost a lot of weight and everything. I hope he recovers soon.
