Lil Wayne Hospitalized After Suffering Two Seizures

Rapper Lil Wayne has been hospitalized after having a seizure during a flight from Milwaukee to California. His flight was forced to make an emergency landing in Nebraska. Wayne was taken off the plane, but refused medical treatment.

After the plane landed, Wayne was conscious and insisted on leaving again. However, as soon as the jet was in the air, he had a second seizure and the jet landed again, this time with Wayne unconscious. Paramedics began to treat him on the plane, but about a half an hour later he was taken to the hospital for further treatment.

Wayne has been dealing with epilepsy since he was a child. He has previously stated that he quit drinking due to the seizures  he has been facing; however, at his show last night he was spotted with a cup in each hand.

 

Back in 2012, a similar situation occurred, where Lil Wayne’s jet made an emergency landing after he suffered a seizure due to what his management said was a “severe migraine and dehydration.”

In 2013, Wayne was placed in a medically induced coma in the intensive care unit for nearly a week after having multiple seizures.
