William Leonard Roberts II professionally known as Rick Ross was rushed by ambulance from his Florida home to a Miami Hospital early Thursday morning after claims of being “unresponsive,” breathing heavy” and “slobbering out the mouth.” Prayers go up to Ross and his family as it has been reported by TMZ that he is now hooked up to a machine that essentially takes over the function of his heart and lungs.
Mr. Rozay has a history of seizures suffering from two within six hours each other back in October 2011. As a result of these health scares the rapper changed his diet and lifestyle by incorporating more exercise and ultimately losing 75lbs.
Ross is suffering from pneumonia, which is inflation of the air spaces in the lung caused by bacteria. Doctors have put the him on ECMO, or extracorporeal membrane oxygenation. Which is extracorporeal life support, a technique used to oxygenate his blood outside of his body, before it’s pumped back into his body.
The Maybach Music Group (MMG) founder’s health has gained a lot of attention on twitter from celeberties who hope to see him back in good health soon. Some of which include, Travis Scott, Missy Elliott, Usher and many others.
