I haven't talked about it on my blog, but feel safe mentioning it here (especially since I'm likely to be the last to comment!). Hopefully it will be nothing, the upcoming series of injections to manage his back pain is certainly enough to deal with. We all have to count our blessings, glad you're keeping your clotting issue in perspective.

How fantastic the manner in which you chose to tell us about your predicament. <br />Years ago Tioga George impressed me with his explanation of what a profound difference "perspective" makes in our handling life's problems. So many times since then, I have remembered that. You brought the lesson back again. It has helped me during times when I thought I had insurmountable troubles. It is good to know that you, too, are aware of this value of perspective. Now, if only you didn't have to be on blood thinners! Remember that line " this, too, shall pass."<br />Hopefully not too far in the future. I wish you well! And Gary, too.

After 2 ER visits in the last month, I'm grateful it hasn't been worse. I'm glad your embolism isn't worse because it very well could have been so get well soon.
