Lamar Odom in the Hospital: First Photo!

Lamar Odom is feeling good enough these days to pose for selfies.



Courtesy of his son, Lamar Odom Jr., we now have our first look at the estranged husband of Khloe Kardashian since his hospitalization in mid-October.


“Christmas with my pops,” the teenage wrote as a caption to this Instagram photo, which includes his sister, Destiny, and the former NBA standout.


“Here’s to 2016. Blessed.”


Odom, of course, fell unconscious while on a weekend bender in a Las Vegas brothel this fall, the latest in a sad number of life setbacks.


He was rushed to a Nevada hospital at the time before being transferred to a Los Angeles facility, where he has remained ever since.


Khloe has spent a ton of time by the side of the ex-power forward, who took his first steps about two months after falling ill.


In the family picture featured here, half of Lamar’s face is visible as his children with ex-girlfriend Liza Morales pose behind him.


The athlete – who is still legally still Kardashian’s husband – also had a son named Jayden with Morales, his partner of 10 years… but that child died at six months old from sudden infant death syndrome in 2006.


There’s no timetable yet set regarding when Odom may be released from the hospital, but at least he is showing signs of progress.


We continue to send him our best wishes.
