Explaining that the stroke not only affected the 6ft 10 star’s body but also his brain, the clothes designer explained "Cognitively there is a lot...it's a long long road ahead. He couldn't put words together today. But he understands. He's really confused a lot we have to remind him. Every day is different. "In a bid to protect him however, Lamar’s friends and family haven’t told the sports player how he ended up in hospital "I can't tell him. We tell him he had a brain injury. I can't tell him how that brain injury was caused. It will set him back."
