The ex-partner of troubled Lamar Odom has arrived in Las Vegas with their two children to be at his bedside as it was revealed he took cocaine with several prostitutes and wept uncontrollably about his 'broken life' just hours before he was discovered unconscious.
Liza Morales, 36, and her two children with Odom, Destiny, 17, and Lamar Jr, 13, left New York and were pictured arriving in Las Vegas last night looking sombre and downcast on their way to visit him in hospital.
Odom, 35, who is fighting for his life after a four-day bender at a Nevada brothel, is believed to have taken a cocktail of illicit drugs during the four day binge.

Sources are now saying that his drugs relapse may have been made worse by an episode of the reality show Keeping up with the Kardashians which aired on Sunday, when he had already arrived at the brothel.
During the episode his estranged wife Khloe Kardashian told the cameras she was worried Lamar would 'spiral' out of control after the drug-related death of his best friend.
Today she was at his bedside in a hospital in Las Vegas, where she had been joined by her pregnant sister Kim and her mother Kris Jenner. Her other sisters Kourtney Kardashian and Kendall Jenner also visited the hospital, while brother Rob Kardashian is also said to be on his way.
His estranged father Joe was also seen entering and leaving the hospital while Caitlyn Jenner is also on her way to Las Vegas according to E! News to be at Lamar's side.
Khloe is making medical decisions for Lamar according to TMZ as even though the two signed divorce papers in July they have yet to be processed and the pair are still legally married. She has not left his side since arriving at the hospital Tuesday night.

Investigators are looking into whether Lamar had visitors during his time at the brothel and what phone calls he may have made from there.
Detective Michael Eisenloffel, who is investigating the incident, refused to say however what items of the star’s were taken away after he was taken to hospital and if there were any drugs or drug paraphernalia found in the room.
In the first 911 recording, a woman at the brothel identifying herself as Misty says a 'client is not breathing.' She doesn’t identify him as Lamar, saying he is a man in his late 20s.
She then calls again in a panic, worried he is 'not breathing.' She says he is unconscious and he has 'white stuff coming out of his mouth and blood out of his nose.'
In the third 911 recording, Richard Hunter, the brothel’s media director, tells the receiver: 'He is breathing regularly.
'He is snoring a little bit but he is breathing consistently.
'He has a little bit of fluid coming from his nose and mouth which has a red coloring to it. It’s not red like blood, it’s more pinkish.
'I saw it coming out of his nose. He is breathing with his mouth open a little bit, snoring and breathing regularly. I’m trying to speak to him and I am hearing a couple of whimpers.
'He is in a deep sleep for sure. I know CPR but there is no reason to do that if he is breathing regularly, right? He is on his right side.”
He is then told by the operator to move him onto his left side.
Mr Hunter then ends the call, and other voices can be heard as Lamar is manouvered on the bed onto his left side.
He says: 'I’ve got him on his left side. He has stuff coming out of his mouth and nose. He [Lamar] took Reload, a 72-hour strong sexual enhancer performer for men. He has taken a bunch of these. It was over a three-day period.
'You can add this to it. Someone just told me that he had some cocaine on him that he finished on Saturday.
'Since then he’s been alert, conscious and all that.'
The operator asks him, 'As far as you know, no cocaine since Saturday?'
Mr Hunter replies: 'That is correct.'
Brothel owner Dennis Hof says that over the weekend, Odom consumed 10 herbal Viagra pills called 'Reload' and two-thirds of a bottle of cognac, but says no drugs were found.
But Daily Mail Online understands that staff at the Love Ranch helped clear Odom's bedroom of any incriminating evidence of drug use before the authorities arrived.
The source said: 'The girls were freaked out. They had been partying with him and taking cocaine but he seemed fine. They didn't leave him alone very long, maybe a few hours.
'He could have shot some other drugs while they weren't there, but they can't be sure what he had taken. He didn't collapse while they were in the room.'
The source says the Love Ranch has a strict no drugs policy, but there's little staff can do about celebrity clients who bring their own stuff in.
The source says Odom was a 'regular' visitor to the Love Ranch - contradicting its assertion he had never visited before - felt 'comfortable' as a guest and had stayed in the same VIP suite before.
'He felt he could really unwind here,' the source said. 'The girls were really looking after him, giving him full body massages and having long talks. Everyone is in shock.'
Brothel owner Hof says Odom was in high spirits when he picked the athlete up at his LA gated community on Saturday, but says he became 'bummed' after receiving a phone call on Sunday.
Sources tell TMZ that the phone call was related to his portrayal on the reality show Keeping Up With the Kardashians, and that after taking the call he became 'irate' and remained inconsolable up until he was found unconscious.
Other sources told TMZ though that Odom was popping 8 to 10 of these pills at a time, and that he used regular Viagra as well.
While Viagra is a widely used and considered a generally safe drug, it does come with some rare side effects that can cause low blood pressure, heart attack and even stroke.
'Of course everybody's thinking, 'Well, maybe it was drugs.' We didn't see any effects of that,' Hof told E! 'He was going to sleep every night, and I don't think he was doing any drugs - although you never can tell. He was doing an herbal Viagra and a lot of it.'
Two prostitutes found the former NBA star unconscious and foaming at the mouth on Tuesday afternoon in a VIP house attached to the legal brothel.
'There was some blood coming out of him. The 911 operator asked them to turn him on his left side and of course he's a big guy, so it was a big challenge,' Hof said. 'They did that and a lot of stuff started coming out of him. He started throwing up and they say it was a horrifying sight...Then the paramedics took over.'
It's believed the last time someone saw Odom alert was at 6am on Tuesday as the partying ground to a halt, when one prostitute woke him up to tell him she was leaving. He was found unconscious later in the day, around 3:15pm.
Odom had been taken by ambulance to the nearby Desert View Hospital, where doctors intubated the basketball player, but he did not regain consciousness.
In a statement released to Daily Mail Online, Hof said Odom had arrived 'alone' at the ranch and spent some time socializing with some of the girls and staff.
'He was polite and reserved, and told multiple employees that he was there to get some privacy and spend time relaxing,' Hof said.
'He largely kept to himself, and at no time did he engage in any drug use in the presence of anyone in the house. He did drink alcohol from our bar, and was taking some herbal sexual enhancement capsules. At his request, he spent Monday evening alone in his suite.
'Around 3.15pm on Tuesday, several employees found him breathing but unresponsive and immediately called 911. An ambulance arrived shortly thereafter and transported him to Pahrump's Desert View Hospital.
'My staff cooperated fully with Nye County Sheriff's Department investigators who arrived on the scene after Lamar was transported for care.
'On behalf of my entire staff I would like to express my sincere concern for his well being and convey our best wishes for his full recovery.'
The basketball star is believed to have spent a five-figure sum after arriving alone at the Love Ranch's top suite on Saturday.
Love Ranch spokesman Richard Hunter told Daily Mail Online the NBA star had spent ‘multiples of five figures’ during his stay – but had appeared to want ‘companionship’ and had asked to spend his last night alone.
Odom had paid to stay in the VIP suite at the Love Ranch brothel in Pahrump, Nevada this weekend. He was found unconscious by two prostitutes

He said there was no appearance that he was suicidal, and said that police had taken away all the brothel’s stocks of Reload, the $4-a-pill herbal Viagra substitute which Odom had taken.
‘To my knowledge it was the first time he has ever been here,’ he said.
‘You’d think a celebrity in Vegas wouldn't have a problem finding people to hang out with but people feel there is a certain discretion here.
‘It was kind of unusual for a celebrity like him to come here alone. Usually the guys have one or two friends with them, then they separate when they get here into different areas.
‘Without knowing him personally, whatever was going on with his circle of friends in Las Vegas, it seemed that was something he wanted to get away from. I think it was obviously important for him to get here alone to a secluded place.
The exact kind of stroke Odom is believed to have suffered involves a blood clot blocking blood flow to the brain, and is often a result of a cocaine overdose. The insider said that Odom started taking cocaine on Friday and 'chocked on his mucus'.
That report is seconded by a source who said that the mucus in Odom's lungs was caused by smoking crack-cocaine. That source added that doctors also found opiates in the ex-NBA star's system and needle marks on one of his arms.
'I'm obviously hoping that he can pull through this, and that in some fortunate way this becomes the beginning of a different ending,' said good friend and New York Knicks coach Derek Fisher in an interview with the Associated Press.
Fishrer, who played with lamar on the Lakers, later toldCNN; 'Lamar Odom was one of the greatest people I've ever known. That's the way I see him. I don't see him through the prism of choices he has made. I view him through the heart and soul of the person he really is.'
Nye County Sheriff Sharon Wehrly spoke with the media on Wednesday revealing that blood had been drawn from Lamar and would be tested for drugs

However, it appears the overdose was not intentional but possibly a result of Odom's history of drug abuse.
'The long term effects of his drug use have taken a toll on his body and the binge this time was too much to handle,' a source told E!
Odom is reportedly on life support in a coma, with his heart, lungs and kidneys failing. Multiple sources say the overdose follows an upsetting call Odom received on Sunday, in connection to his portrayal on Keeping up with the Kardashians.
Brothel owner Dennis Hof says Odom was in high spirits when he picked the athlete up at his LA gated community on Saturday, but says he became 'bummed' after receiving a phone call on Sunday.
Sources tell TMZ that the phone call was related to his portrayal on the reality show Keeping up with the Kardashians, and that after taking the call he became 'irate' and remained inconsolable up until he was found unconscious.
TMZ says Odom was allegedly triggered by a re-run of Keeping Up With The Kardashians which aired on Sunday, in which Khloe told the cameras she was worried Lamar would ‘spiral’ out of control after the recent drug-related death of his best friend. A Kardashian spokesman told Daily Mail Online that Odom's medical emergency 'had nothing to do with the show'.
The Kardashians are not filming at the hospital or in Las Vegas.
WHAT HAPPENS TO YOUR BODY WHEN YOU OVERDOSE?
In severe cases an overdose can induce a stroke, which occurs when the blood supply to the brain is interrupted or reduced
An overdose occurs where a person takes a quantity of drugs that their body is unable to cope with.
There are a number of signs and symptoms that a person has overdosed, that depend on the type of drug used.
DEPRESSANT OVERDOSE
Opioids, benzodiazephines and alcohol are all depressants, which means they slow the central nervous system, affecting breathing and heart rate.
Too much of any of these drugs can kill or cause permanent brain damage.
Overdoing it on alcohol can cause seizures, irregular breathing and unconsciousness.
STIMULANT OVERDOSE
Where a person overdoses on amphetamines, such as speed and ice, they are at high risk of suffering a heart attack, stroke, seizure or drug-induced psychotic episodes.
Signs and symptoms include:
chest pain severe headache seizures difficulty breathing hallucinations unconsciousness
MIXING DRUGS
Taking a cocktail of different illicit drugs at once puts undue strain on the body, and dramatically increases the risk of overdose and the subsequent health complications.
Hypoxic brain injury, caused by a lack of oxygen to the brain, is often a consequence of heroin overdose.
The brain injuries can cause coma, seizures and in the worst cases, brain death.
The longer a person is not breathing, the more potential damage is done, because the brain is being deprived of oxygen.
WHAT TRIGGERS A STROKE?
In severe cases, overdose can trigger a stroke, as well as heart attack, and severe respiratory problems.
Lifestyle factors including heavy or binge drinking and indulging in the use of illicit drugs, such as cocaine and methamphetamines, are both recognised by experts risk factors for stroke.
A stroke occurs when the blood supply to your brain is interrupted or reduced, experts at the Mayo Clinic state.
The condition can be caused by a blocked artery - known as an ischemic stroke - or the leaking or bursting of a blood vessel - known as a haemorrhagic stroke.
