Swede 4 Posted August 25, 2017 I got the worst possible phone call I could Tuesday morning My mom went in for knee replacement surgery Monday everything went fine but Tuesday morning she had a massive stroke that she will not recover from My knee replacement surgery put me into atrial-fib. They over medicated me and my heart stopped. When they got it started it went into fibrillation. Now Im on blood thinners twice daily for the rest of my life. Im guessing a blood clot went through her heart.Sorry to hear this SGH Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Im guessing a blood clot went through her heart.Sorry to hear this SGH at this point they have ruled out blood clots of any type a heart attack a stroke or any major events that could show on CT unltrasounds or MRI Doc said she had low blood oxygen level for some time so they not really sure what did it Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Muddy Pete 0 Posted August 27, 2017 you be careful muddy do you wear a helmet hot today 78 wont get cooler until wednesday I wear a helmet. I took the pedestrian catwalk in Cape may Courthouse which crosses the GSP. It adds an extra mile to my route but doesn't really add any time and it's safer. Also I dropped 2 pounds.

KentuckyWoodsman 1 Posted August 29, 2017 Good evening. Things have been very busy around here lately, that is why I have not been around much. The wife was out of town all week and I have had a ton of stuff going on between work and jobs around the farm and house. The wife just escaped from the TX Hurricane late last night. I picked her up at the Cincinnati Airport and as we were driving home we watched a tractor/trailer go out of control and wreck. I was the first one on the scene, but luckily the driver was okay, but the truck had seen better days. It appeared to me the driver fell asleep at the wheel. He was very lucky!
