Since awakening from a three-day coma, Lamar Odom's health has been making a steady improvement as the Kardashian clan united around his bedside in a Las Vegas hospital over the weekend. A number of reports indicated that the former LA Lakers star, for the first time, could socialize and move around. According to reports, Odom was 'conversational,' able to speak sentences and send text messages, as he is able to breath on his own without a ventilator. The 35-year-old was also helped out of his bed and onto a chair Sunday.
