Lamar Odom has not gotten any better, and sources familiar with his treatment say even if he survives he has virtually no chance of ever leading a normal life.

Our sources say doctors continue to put Lamar's chances of survival at 50/50. We're told he showed "absolutely no improvement" Thursday from the condition he was in when he was admitted to the hospital Tuesday. As one person put it, "He's in dire straits."

Man Abducted As A Four Year Old Is Finally Reunited With His Parents 20 Years After

This is the emotional moment when a Chinese father, who spent 20 years searching for his abducted son all over the country, has finally found his child yesterday.

Sun Wei was abducted when he was just four years old and sold to a family over 1,400 miles away from home. His father, Sun Zhenghua, has spent some eight months of every year searching for him ever since.

The pair finally reconnected after finding a match on Chinese police's DNA database, reported People's Daily Online. 

It was September 1995 and the then four-year-old Sun Wei had just started pre-school in Liangshan, southwest China.

Even though he was so young, Sun Wei's parents allowed him to travel the half-mile journey on his own as they thought it was close enough.

However, it turned out to be their biggest mistake when he failed to return home just three days into his new pre-school life.

It later materialised that the boy had been lured away by a stranger with a handful of sweets.
