Demsrule86 in hospital

I'm her husband, and I have some bad news. She's in ICU with blood clots near her heart. Going to thread up her blood vessels to try to remove.
Prayers, Good Thoughts, Good Karma, etc. is welcome and needed.

Please try to care for yourself during this difficult time. I'm sure you are hearing that a lot, but it is because it truly is important and good advice.

I have been bedside at the ICU basically non-stop for the past week dealing with a similarly dire situation, I understand what you are going through. Please try to be strong, and try take comfort knowing that you are not alone.
