Nate Dogg Stable after Second Stroke

TMZ has learned hip-hop legend Nate Dogg is still hangin' on after suffering a stroke 11 days ago -- his second in the last year.

We're told Nate is in stable condition in a hospital ward, but is using an assisted breathing tube -- which is not required but makes breathing easier for him. Despite other reports, Dogg, who is currently sedated, did NOT suffer any brain damage.

According to our sources it's too early to tell how this stroke will impact the use of his limbs (his arm and leg were affected from the first stroke) -- but there isn't much movement below his neck at this time.

Nate's due in court on the 24th to face felony charges after he allegedly made death threats to his estranged wife.

33. Hum - It's sad for all you red neck racists to be making comments like that when someone is in a time of need. I just hope that as you laugh and make jokes now that none of your family ends up dropping dead. And as far as what he did with his personal life and what he smoked and dranked I bet there has never been any reports on him SCREWING HIS KIDS as most of you that's being disrespectful I BET has experienced being screwed by your PARENTS OR PRIESTS. hahaha GET YOUR LAUGH ON!

34. i am really shock at the comments i have read, i know Nate and it is obvious that most of you un educated ppl do not.

he has never done anything wrong to anyone dont believe what you read in the tabloids, regardless of that, even if he was the meanest man on earth, does not give anyone the rt to be just out right evil!!!!
The only truth i see in any of these comments is the fact that he is very sick and has a machine helping him, instaead of being rude and negative why not pray for him and his family..

WE LOVE YOU Nate and you are always in our prayers and thoughts!!!

35. I've seen Nate Dogg at a club a few times and he's been nothing but nice to everyone. Who the hell said he was on crack? I've seen crackheads and he doesn't resemble anything close to that. Leave the man alone. I mean damn, how would you feel? People that don't even know you talking crap about you. Just shut up and let him recover.

39. I remember you from the 90's, when West Coast rappers were in their prime. I am hoping for a full recovery, Nate. Take care of yourself, please!

41. I truly hope Nate gets better.
If you only know a person from what you read on the internet, or see on TV, then you really have no right to judge that person. For all of you out there that think you are funny by posting hateful negative comments, your day will come when you need people to lift you up and not kick you while you are down,

44. Nate Dogg may not be a role model but finding anything funny about his condition says that you arent either.

Remembering that there but for the grace of God go I is a good idea.

I pray for strength for Nate Dogg, his family and friends and that all of you that think that this situation is a joking matter remember that it could very well be you.

45. To all the people that have spoken unkindly about Nate. Just a word of advise if you don't have nothing nice to say please don't say nothing at all. All it does shows your up bringing regardless of what he did in the past God surely Forgives and also Heals so remember when or if you are ever faced with a situation like this read the word: Isaia 53:4-6

I will be praying for you and your family. Keep the Faith and you will get better.
