This is Tink.
K is in hospital again.
Blood clots in both legs. Could lose one or both legs if don't operate soon. Emergency surgery happening this afternoon.
Prayers/thoughts/vibes appreciated.

OMG! I hope they can save both legs. Sending positive thoughts your way. Keep believing that everything will work out and they can save his legs.

Been there, done that, as far as clotting in the legs and pulmonary embolism in the lungs. I didn't lose either leg and I had clotting only in the left leg and thigh but I was hospitalized a total of three times for eight days each time and the PE nearly did me in.

They can insert what is called a Greenfield filter to prevent DVT clots in the legs from progressing up into the lungs, which is where the real danger lies. You can read about that procedure here. BTW, all of my complications are the result of a motorcycle accident that happened 33 years ago.

Sending prayers and best wishes from Tennessee! I can't imagine the stress you two are under. My wife had a PE a week before our wedding. Not fun, just glad they caught it.

Hi, all. It's Tink. I'm just back from the hospital.
I'm too overwhelmed and exhausted to get into nitty gritty details but I wanted to at least let you know that he made it through surgery okay and he's recovering in the cardiac unit. I appreciate your thoughts, I really do believe they've helped. Thank you.

 

[Ninong]

Thank you, Tink, for taking the time to update us. Now get some rest. We're all pulling for you guys.
