I'm not really sure if I should post this; for the most part this site is positive and offers great support for those of us that need it.

Many people on this site have made connections and have talked away from the forum. I am definitely one of them.

With a heavy heart I'm sad to announce that someone that has become a great friend in a short amount if time, livesaveremt, passed away Monday. He had his surgery at the end of February. So far, they are saying he had a blood clot (a known complication from the surgery) that traveled up into his heart and lungs.

Fred, you were a great guy and will be missed. You were always a positive support system and a rock to lean on.

God Speed. We'll take it from here.....

I'm so sorry to hear that, my heart goes out to his family.

Prayers to his family. Everyone, please remember it is very important to walk throughout the days after surgery to help avoid blood clots.

Oh how sad. Prayers and thoughts to his family.. Hope for quick comfort

So sad. May he rest in peace.
