Good morning! I am at the hospital early this am because they found a clot in Ken's right leg yesterday. After additional tests last night they started a heavier dose of blood thinners and will be putting in a filter today to keep the clot from reaching his lung or brain and causing further damage. This type of clot development is not uncommon if you are not moving for a while similar to the clot that can develop during a long airplane ride. He had swelling in his right leg that wouldn't go away and he complained of pain when I was putting lotion on his leg. We pointed this out to the doctor which led to the tests. Continue praying and I will post after the procedure.
