DJ Skee @djskee:
Just got double confirmation from a second family source: Wayne is going to be ok- he's in hospital, but not life threatening. TMZ was wrong
FYI until I get Wayne's voice direct I won't say 100% confirmation, but his family is very very very adamant in saying he is going to be ok
T.I. @Tip
Just holla'd @my Lil bruh Tunechi...& he skraight! TMZ some fuck-niggaz for reporting that hoe-ass-shit!!! That man daughter is like mines.
CEO of Cash Money Slim echoes Mack Maine's tweets.

TMZ says:
5:16 PM PT -- We're told Wayne is being given his last rites ... with his family surrounding him to say their goodbyes. (TMZ removed this later)
Wayne's mother is currently on a plane flying to Los Angeles -- and we're told all major decisions about Wayne's health (including the decision to discontinue life support) will not be made until she arrives.
6:30 PM PT -- Sources at the hospital tell us Wayne is still in critical condition in the ICU ... but stabilizing.
We're told the prognosis is uncertain.
Wayne is sleeping right now ... which is odd, because he just tweeted saying he's OK and thanking people for the prayers and love.


Original Post:
Lil Wayne is in ICU in critical condition after suffering yet another seizure, and we're told it doesn't look good ... TMZ has learned.

We broke the story ... the 30-year-old rapper was rushed to Cedars-Sinai Hospital in L.A. Tuesday night after suffering multiple seizures. He was released Wednesday but just hours later one of his bodyguards found him in his room, on the floor and unconscious.

Wayne was rushed to the hospital again, but this time he did not stabilize. He was taken to ICU, where he was placed in restraints because he was shaking uncontrollably.

We're told Wayne is currently "unstable," and has been placed in an induced coma. He is breathing through tubes.

We're told several people are at Wayne's bedside crying, and a number of rap artists and family members are on the way. Sources say the scene is violent as Wayne shakes uncontrollably.

Sources say there's evidence Wayne went on a Sizzurp binge after being released Wednesday, because doctors found high amounts of codeine in his system.

We're told Wanye's stomach was pumped 3 times to flush the drugs from his system.

Here's a video of Lil Wayne in the past discussing his addiction, amongst other things.

I hope Weezy comes out of this alive, but his mentality has to change after this after he's been pretty ignorant for a while even after acknowledging what happened to Pimp C. Try to keep it classy in this thread people, for your own account's sake.

No remorse for those that willingly ingest such dangerous substances.

Especially if they also advertise it.

That said, I hope he recovers and learns from his mistakes.

I can't say I really know anything about him, but best of luck to him anyway.

Grown ass men with kids need to consider their party selections. I hope, only for his children, that he pulls through.

the fuck...
sizzurp 2793 up, 1368 down

The original formula:

Promethazine w/Codeine syrup
Any fruit flavored soda
A jolly rancher

Put it all in a styrofoam cup and enjoy. The codeine is mainly responsible for the euphoria felt after drinking sizzurp. Promethazine causes motor skill impairment, lethargy, and extreme drowsiness. If it doesn't have promethazine, it ain't real sizzurp.

DXM is not a component of sizzurp, although it may produce vaguely similar effects to the above recipe in doses ranging from 150 - 250 mg.

He's dying? Goddamnit, Wayne.

My friend, whom some gaffers know from youtube videos, worships this guy. Worships him.

Fuuuuuuckkk. I poke fun at him sometimes but I've always been a huge fan and appreciated the style he's brought to hip hop.

I really hope dude makes it.

Kind of sick of seeing musicians go before their time, for whatever reason they go.

People don't understand that prescription meds can be very bad, especially when mixed with per-existing medical conditions and other drugs. It's a shame. RIP.
