Everyone has been praying for Lamar Odom’s father, Joe Odom, who was reportedly “gravely ill” in the hospital this week.

Both Lamar and wife Khloe Kardashian rushed from Dallas to be by Joe’s side, but it turns out he wasn’t so terribly sick after all!

TMZ obtained a video yesterday of a healthy Joe in L.A., who told them that he was just in the hospital for a “stomach virus.” 

“[Wednesday] night [Lamar] stayed with me all night … just kickin’ it and what not … but everything is good now I feel a lot better.”

He also went on to explain how grateful he is to have his son put his career on hold for him, since Lamar skipped out on his game against the Lakers due to “family matters.” 

We’re so glad that Joe is doing OK, and that Lamar is on good terms with his father.
