Overview
- The comedian was photographed signing autographs at the Hollywood Show in Los Angeles on May 29, marking one of his first public outings since the December overdose.
- Footage and reporting show that on Dec. 9 he was found unconscious after leaving a filming session and was revived with multiple doses of Narcan, an opioid overdose reversal drug.
- Dick later checked into a Palm Springs rehab facility and left in under two months, and he has publicly described the December episode as a near-death experience.
- He told a podcast that a CAT scan showed “about five to seven holes” in his brain, and his representative says those lesions stem from a 2019 assault when he was punched outside a club.
- Representatives say he is ‘healthy, sober and doing great,’ but reporting notes that claims about the scan and the cause of the brain lesions rely on Dick’s comments and his rep’s statement rather than independent medical verification.
