According to Bam Margera‘s mom, April, Viva La Bam alum Don Vito is in dire straights after suffering from liver failure due to a lifetime of excessive drinking and partying.

For those who don’t know, Don is April’s brother-in-law and Bam’s uncle. The colorful man appeared on many episodes of the show and his unintelligible dialogue often required subtitles.
D.V. collapsed at his Pennsylvania home on Tuesday and remained in a coma until Friday. While the former reality star made some phone calls from his hospital bed upon waking up, his organs continue to fail.
This hospitalization is just one of the many scandals the uncle has faced over the years — in 2006 Don was convicted of fondling two 12-year-old girls at an autograph signing event. The partier didn’t face any jail time but he was sentenced to ten years of “serious probation” in addition to alcohol education classes.
We’ll keep you updated if any other developments arise.
