Travis Barker Out of Hospital After Pancreatitis Battle, Enjoys a 'Joyride' With Kourtney Kardashian and Kids on 4th of July
Travis Barker has been released from the hospital, and he spent the 4th of July driving his vintage orange truck with his wife, Kourtney Kardashian, and her two kids.
The Blink-182 drummer was discharged from the hospital six days after suffering from life-threatening pancreatitis. According to Daily Mail, Travis and Kourtney enjoyed a "joyride" with the reality star's two children, Penelope and Reign.
In a recording posted on Kourtney's Instagram stories on Monday, the reality star was seen chilling, enjoying the moment, as they cruised around the highway. She looked fabulous in a black Prada hat, matching shades, a plain white t-shirt, and jeans.
Penelope and Reign were seen sitting at the back of the vintage truck, looking peaceful. The family was listening to Bruno Mars' 2012 hit "Grenade" as they drove around.
In another Instagram story, Kourtney showed a black Converse shoe, which seemed to be Travis Barker's footwear, as she filmed the vehicle's pedals.
Travis Barker and Kourtney Kardashian Share Details on Drummer's Health Scare
Two days before Travis Barker and Kourtney Kardashian went on a road trip, they shared on Instagram what they had been through after the drummer suffered from pancreatitis that resulted in him being rushed to the hospital.
Travis wrote on his Instagram Story that he went in for an endoscopy Monday "feeling great."
"But after dinner, I developed excruciating pain and I have been hospitalized ever since," he noted.
Travis said that during the endoscopy, he "had a very small polyp removed right in the very sensitive area, usually handled by specialists, which unfortunately damaged a critical pancreatic drainage tube."
He noted that this resulted in "severe life-threatening pancreatitis." Kourtney also wrote on her Instagram Story about the scary episode.
She noted that it has been a "scary and emotional week." The Poosh founder said health is everything and "and sometimes we take for granted how quickly it can change."
Kourtney Kardashian added that she and Travis went in for a routine endoscopy together, and his husband "ended up with severe, life-threatening pancreatitis." The reality star also thanked the doctors and nurses in the hospital who looked after both of them.
Travis Barker Pancreatitis Battle
Last week, Travis Barker was rushed to West Hills Hospital in Los Angeles, California after experiencing extreme stomach pain and could barely walk.
Kourtney Kardashian was seen following close behind him as he entered the hospital. The couple is believed to have headed to the West Hills Hospital themselves.
After the medical crew at West Hills felt Travis needed additional care, the rockstar was then taken by ambulance to the Cedars-Sinai Medical Center, where the doctors focused on pain management and determining the drummer's condition via "a battery of tests and a modified diet."
On Monday, Kris Jenner and her boyfriend Corey Gamble sent a glamorous orange bouquet to Travis to cheer him up after his scary hospitalization.
"Dearest Travis, Get Well Soon!!! We Love You, Kris and Corey xo," read the card attached to the flowers.
Travis Barker shared a picture of this beautiful bouquet on his Instagram Story that his mother-in-law sent. Kourtney Kardashian also shared photos of the flowers via her own Instagram Story.
