In what will come as shocking news on Friday, Hip Hop mogul, Rick Ross is reportedly in the hospital fighting for his life according to fresh claims from TMZ.
Rick Ross has been hooked up to a machine that’s taking over the function of his heart and lungs … according to sources connected to the music mogul.
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.
Many of Rick’s peers took to social media to send up prayers for a speedy recovery.
