Well, she's out of surgery.  She did very well.  They did a procedure where they went in through the femoral artery and sucked the clots out.  I can't believe the size of the clot that was in her left lung.  It was no [BLEEP] wonder she was having trouble breathing.  She's breathing much better now and acting more normal.  Dad is feeling quite relieved.  I'll be the first to admit I was having trouble keeping it together.  I was scared because this procedure was not without risk.

Oh well, important thing is she's doing a lot better.  She'll be here for a couple of days for observation while she on the blood thinners, but things are good.
