In recovery: Lamar Odom, picture with estranged wife Khloe Kardashian, reportedly suffered a dozen strokes after collapsing in a legal brothel
Odom's strokes were discovered during a series of brain scans and doctors are unable to say if the impact on his motor skills and speech will be permanent, TMZ reports.
Odom is now back in Los Angeles, where is making 'miraculous' progress, after getting treatment at a hospital in Las Vegas.
In an extraordinary step, fans have now taken to social media to offer their kidneys to the former basketball star.
One said: 'I need Lamar to pull through this. Willing to donate a kidney if it will help. PLEASE.'
Another wrote: 'If Lamar Odom needs a kidney, I will gladly give up one of mine without a second thought. Mistakes do not define us.'
Sources inside the medical center say Odom cannot stand up by myself, remains on dialysis, and may need a kidney transplant. He is pictured here leaving Sunrise Hospital in Vegas
Nye County Sheriff Sharon Wehrly said that a worker described the former basketball star as unresponsive with blood coming from his nose and mouth after he collapsed on October 13.
The Love Ranch owner Dennis Hof said Odom had arrived on October 10 for a four-day stay and spent $75,000 (£49,000) on two women who accompanied him in a VIP suite.
Khloe Kardashian has been by her estranged husband's side since he was found in a critical condition.
The couple's lawyer has successfully applied for their divorce proceedings to be dismissed in a California court.
She broke her silence earlier this week, saying: 'The past week has been so difficult.
'I am so thankful to family, friends and fans, who have sent nothing but prayers and well wishes to Lamar.'

'Under their amazing care, incredible strides have been made.
'You can never be prepared for an experience like this but without the outpouring of love and endless prayers that Lamar has received and the strength I was given from my loved ones, it would have been difficult to endure.
'Thank you for your continued support. God is great.'
Odom won the NBA championship with the Lakers in 2009 and 2010 and was named NBA Sixth Man of the Year in 2011.
He last played in the NBA in 2013 with the Clippers.
