Sources say he is unconscious and fighting for his life.  (TMZ and other sites of that type)

-from TMZ

Lamar Odom is fighting for his life after falling into unconsciousness at Dennis Hof's Love Ranch South in Pahrump, Nevada ... TMZ Sports has learned.

Sources at the Love Ranch tell us ... 35-year-old Odom arrived at the Ranch Saturday and was partying with the girls for days. A source at the Ranch said Lamar was taking an herbal substitute for Viagra.

We spoke with Hof ... who tells us Tuesday afternoon, a woman went into Odom's room in the VIP suites and found him unconscious.

We're told the woman began screaming for the manager -- who called 911.

The manager rolled Lamar over on his side and saw "mucus-type liquid coming out of his nose and mouth."

An ambulance took Lamar to Pahrump hospital, where doctors intubated him ... an indication he could not breathe on his own.

We're told Lamar is being airlifted from the hospital to Las Vegas for more treatment.

Our sources tell us, "It's not good."

We're told Lamar had been partying at the ranch by himself -- with no friends or entourage -- and is now alone at the hospital.

The ranch staff says they want to be in the room with Lamar but since they're not family they're not allowed.

This is really sad to me. Addiction is awful.

Agreed. I don't follow them, so I didn't realize he had a problem.

It's weird how the Kardashians and their loved ones are so ubiquitous now.  I remember the first time I heard of Kris and Robert--friends of Orenthal* and Nicole Simpson.  Kris was in a few of the books written about the trial.

*I subscribe to the late Vincent Bugliosi's idea that he lost his privilege to be known by a cutesy nickname when he brutally killed two people.

How sad for him and his loved ones. I know his best friend recently died suddenly. Addiction is an awful thing.
