Ben Askren is still on the mend with hopes that he’ll be able to leave the hospital soon but he’s not allowing himself to get mired in pity after requiring a double lung transplant to survive. The retired UFC veteran was admitted to the hospital several weeks ago after a severe case of pneumonia left him in bad shape. Askren was sedated with doctors constantly monitoring his condition before eventually deciding that he would need two new lungs to breath on his own moving forward.
