Nearly one year after DMX’s death, fiancée Desiree Lindstrom has opened up about their son’s medical struggles and how she takes care of him.
“Exodus is stable. He’s been stable since I had him,” Lindstrom, 29, revealed during the March 3 episode of the “It’s Tricky With Raquel Harper” podcast about the 5-year-old. “He still has stage 3 kidney disease, and I’m just continuing to keep his potassium down [because] you can’t eat high potassium foods [with chronic kidney disease].”
She continued: “He goes to the doctor very often. I make sure that his creatinine levels are at the levels he needs to be to keep him stable. He’s an amazing child.”
“Exodus is an amazing child! Blessed to be his mother through this journey. March is the month that brings awareness to kidney disease,” she shared a clip of her podcast appearance via Instagram earlier this month.
According to the National Institute of Diabetes and Digestive and Kidney Diseases, chronic kidney disease (CKD) occurs when an individual’s kidney function gradually decreases over time, making it difficult for the organ to filter blood throughout the body.
