Yesterday we found out that Angela has a blood clot in her right leg, near the top. This is not good. The danger is that it could cut loose and lodge in her lung which is very serious and could even cause death. She will now need to be put on drugs to reduce the clot and prevent more clots. These drugs will greatly increase the risk of bleeding at the time of birth, especially since whe will probably need a C-section. The most dangerous time for a Pulmonary Embolism is the week or so AFTER the birth.
Please pray that the clot will desolve quickly,
That the clot will not dislodge,
That no new clots will form,
That there will be no bleeding problems
And that the doctors will have wisdom

Do you really want to leave the public in such a state of suspense? (c: Maybe a quick comment note as to the results of the surgery/birth. I know what happens!
