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.....

Yikes!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

I am sad with tears! We were sleeve on the same day. Words cannot express my thoughts. My concern and Prayer for the family. There but the Grace of God go I. For truly it could have been Me or you. Lord for his Family Bless all of them

Today.

RIP Fred, I didn't know you but hopefully we will meet one day in God's kingdom! Prayers are with your friends and family in this time of sorrow...

I had surgery on 2/28. I was having pain in my calf for the last week or so. Today I was diagnosed with a blood clot. I now am taking a blood thinner for the next 6 months. Doc said I was a ticking time bomb.
