There is a new report out on a major site about Kim Biermann and I don’t believe a word of it. This is the same source that said Kim was dancing around her hospital room. It was Tony who was dancing around the room cheering up Kim. The fact of the matter is that Kim was released to go home late yesterday afternoon.
Kim had a TIA (mini-stroke) early Wednesday morning at home very shortly after arriving back to her home in Atlanta. She spent Wednesday night in the hospital for tests. Patients who have a TIA have an increased risk of a full on stroke for the next three months. The 48 hours after the TIA are high risks days for a stroke to occur if there is one coming. Kim was given and EKG and a CT scan of her brain as standard treatment. Then on Friday she had to have another procedure, most likely to check for blockage of her carotid artery (ultrasound). If there had been blockage, she would not have been sent home.
She will have some blood thinners and possibly high blood pressure medicine to take and will have to cut down on alcohol and watch her diet. While a TIA is often a precursor to a full on stroke, usually within ninety days, she should be fine if she takes it easy. If she is back on DWTS it will most likely be via Facetime or something.
Between some of you idiots saying she is faking it and the other site acting like she is going to die, y’all are just a mess. Here is hoping she has a healthy recovery and that Tracy makes her eat all kinds of healthy crap she will hate. Those cute twins of hers should keep her calm and relaxed.
Oh and FYI, all strokes have an “underlying heart cause” whatever that means. That is sort of what a stroke is.
Those things are scary.
If she quits DWTS people will bitch, if she doesn’t people will bitch. I hope she doesn’t care either way, she has 6 beautiful kids to raise. Well really 5 bc Brielle is 18, but she is still Kims baby.
I see Kroy putting his foot down and Kim being pissed over eating healthy. She will do it though, no matter what she loves her family and knows they need her.
Just want to say thank you TT for posting responsibly when it comes to health related issues (Kim Richards is another example in a much different category). Your tea is always great and your kindness in the industry is rare.
Screw DWTS. I hope she does what’s best for her and her family. Wishing her the best.
Bravo Tamara!
A relatively new marriage, six kids, TV, plastic surgery. Time to take a break and reassess what’s important and narrow her focus. These things are signs it’s time to stop, look and listen.
If Tamara doesn’t think its fake, then thats all i need to know. We know she would have her purple pen out pointing out the flaws of Kim’s story!
I hope Kim listens to her body, TIA can be a wonderful warning system. Not always.
Kim doesnt seem to have clue how to eat healthy good tasting food. Takes time to learn.
Wishing her good health.
Kim has a personal chef and she probably eats healthier than most. She does move slow for a mother of 6 but that’s only what we see on tv. I’m sure she’s moving and grooving all day long, even if it’s only administering her staff.
Kim is still a young woman. I believe she had a TIA, it might be hereditary or maybe it happened from the other reasons claimed.
If she’s anything, she’s a mother who loves her children and she’s going to do whatever is necessary for her to continue being a mother (and wife) and she really can give 2 whits about DWTS.
Is she allowed to continue drinking wine during this 3 month recovery period? She loves her wine!
The lifestyle changes should be permanent. Private chef or not, Kim is NOT a healthy eater. Your private chef makes whatever you like. Kim likes pizza and mac and cheese and fried chicken and all that good stuff. 🙂 She does not like healthy food or exercise and she loves her booze.
The three months is usually when a full blown stroke is most likely to occur. But she clearly has a predisposition to strokes and knows it now, so she needs to try and be a little healthier. Don’t ask me how I know this.
Knowing you should make better choices and doing it are two different animals.
I certainly hope her smoking days are over also. I wish her all good health. She has a lot of babies to raise and enjoy.
Wow wow wow!!!! That’s terrible !! I hope she gets fully recovers and stops smoking .
TIA is a warning and nothing to play with. Good she is home to recover and enjoy the love of her family. Wishing her good health.
I’ve grown to like Kim more since watching Don’t Be Tardy..I want what her and Kroy have!! People who think she’s faking are dumb. I don’t know why she ever signed on for DWTS in the first place. I hope she makes a full recovery and I hope she lays off of the plastic surgery! Going under the knife a lot increases your risk for everything.
Hopefully this incident makes her take a step back and realize that maybe, just maybe, she has been taking her wonderful new life for granted and that she take a closer look at what she has in (sweet/loving Kroy and those beautiful babies).
My dad had a TIA a few years ago. I hope Kim is ok for her kid’s sake.
Kim is lucky she has a chef to make substitutions taste good. Her previous diet was really heavy on the carbs.
I admit I was disgusted at her very in your face crap with “Big Papa” and him being married. I cannot stand affairs, what she does have with Kroy I was skeptical of at First. I was pretty sure she was after a child support check. Watching them on their own show does show the real, to the core love. I am happy she has found a man who not just loves her and her kids but loves them beyond all else. You don’t see many marriages that have this many family issues stay this strong. With both sets of parents being assholes and all it makes me sad for the kids not to know the grandparents but do have such loving parents at home. Kim is crazy, she is zany, she is tacky as shit but she also loves deeply and fully and you see that with her family. I wish she would ditch the make up and wigs, she is so much prettier than all that fake shit. I hope she takes this cue and starts to take better care of herself because she has so many beautiful loves to do that for.
I’ll bet she is just glad to get home.
Kim is a registered nurse and I’m sure this was a HUGE wake up call- I can’t help but think she’s had too many plastic surgery procedures and this may have attributed to the mini stroke- I hope she listens to her body and eats better and cuts out the alcohol – stress doesn’t help either and w/six kids and all- I can’t imagine – I had 4 under age 7 but I was in my early 20’s- thanks TT for the update!
For some weird reason I always liked her. Big Poppa phase was off putting but I found it very cool she didn’t step back from it – she owned it. The “I might have had cancer but not really moment” irritated the crap out of me because I couldn’t figure out what the hell she was attempting to say there…Regardless, I just want her to get better and continue to enjoy her life. Her show is funny as hell to me. But I’d be okay with her stopping the braying noise. That’s just irritating… 🙂
