The hip hop world was shocked to hear that DMX suffered a drug overdose, which triggered a heart attack this past weekend. Unfortunately, the prognosis does not look good and X remains at White Plains Hospital in a coma.
As his status continues up in the air, DMX is set to undergo a series of critical brain function tests that will determine what happens.
According to TMZ, doctors will perform a battery of tests to assess his level of brain function. At the time of his heart attack, he was deprived of oxygen for 30 minutes, which severely impacted his brain. As of now, it has been reported that he is in a vegetative state and has little brain activity.
Continued prayers for X continue from fans all across the world, as people wish him a healthy recovery.
UPDATE: TMZ reports that the tests showed no improvement in brain activity. The results are set to be “not good” and the family will have to make the decision of withdrawing him from life support soon or not.
