So, it would appear Lil Wayne is just about dead
From TMZ:
5:16 PM PT -- We're told Wayne is being given his last rites ... with his family surrounding him to say their goodbyes.
Lil Wayne is in ICU in critical condition after suffering yet another seizure, and we're told it doesn't look good ... TMZ has learned.
We broke the story ... the 30-year-old rapper was rushed to Cedars-Sinai Hospital in L.A. Tuesday night after suffering multiple seizures. He was released Wednesday but just hours later one of his bodyguards found him in his room, on the floor and unconscious.
Wayne was rushed to the hospital again, but this time he did not stabilize. He was taken to ICU, where he was placed in restraints because he was shaking uncontrollably.
We're told Wayne is currently "unstable," and has been placed in an induced coma. He is breathing through tubes.
We're told several people are at Wayne's bedside crying, and a number of rap artists and family members are on the way. Sources say the scene is violent as Wayne shakes uncontrollably.
Sources say there's evidence Wayne went on a Sizzurp binge after being released Wednesday, because doctors found high amounts of codeine in his system.
We're told Wayne's stomach was pumped 3 times to flush the drugs from his system.
******************************************
I know I should be respectful of death and all... but someone up there did us a solid by making sure we'll never hear him "play" guitar again.

And some guy Mack Maine, no clue who that is, tweeted he's alive and well watching the Syracuse game with him, and for us not to believe it.

Looks like his song "I feel like dying," came true
Only once the drugs are done
That I feel like dying, I feel like dying
I am sittin on the clouds
