DJ AM Is Out Of The Hospital

DJ AM has been released from Doctors Hospital in Georgia, a week after surviving a plane crash in South Carolina. His rep said that he's currently on his way back to Los Angeles. The rep also said: "While he is deeply saddened by the events he is thankful for all of the love and support he has been receiving from fans and friends world wide. We ask that you continue respect his privacy as he rests and heals and mourns the loss of his friends."

Travis Barker is still in the hospital in Georgia where he's being treated for burns to his torso and lower body. Jermaine Dupri recently visited Travis and told People: "He's supposed to send a message out to everybody in a couple of days to let everybody know that he's feeling better. He's definitely feeling the love from everyone." Jermaine said Travis should be out of the hospital in about two weeks.

Travis Barker And DJ AM Expected To Make A Full Recovery

Dr. Fred Mullins of the Augusta, GA's Joseph Still Burn Center held a press conference this morning to give an update on Travis Barker and DJ AM's injuries from Friday's plane crash that killed 4 people.

Dr. Fred said the two are expected to make a "full recovery." He said they both suffered second and third degrees burns. He added that it can take up to a year to recover from such burns but the two didn't suffer any other type of injuries. He went on to say that Travis was burned on his torso. DJ was burned on his hands and part of his head. Dr. Fred would not say what percentage of their bodies were burned or if they were conscious. He also said they should be able to return to performing once they have recovered.

Given the circumstances, this is good news.

During the press conference, Dr. Fred read a statement from the families:

The families wish to thank fans from all over the world for their prayers and concern. Deepest sympathy is expressed to the loved ones of those who perished in the crash. As the two recuperate and mourn this loss, privacy for them, their families and friends is requested at this time.
