Boston is not too far away. They have some of the best up there.
This is really unfortunate. Tell him we are pulling for him.

Billy tell him I'm wishing him well and hope he fully recovers very soon.
And I agree, Miriam & RI Hospital are the only places I'd go in RI with a serious medical issue.

There has to be something throwing those clots. Its time to stop screwing around with amatuers and go to
BOSTON! He must be on cumiden or something just like it, and still having the same problem it just isn't appropriate. Prayers being said as I type this.

I agree wholeheartedly. WE just had a bout of clots with my grandfather. (He is 88) He has been on Coumadin for approx 50 years. So when it was found out to be a clot in his leg the doctors at Brockton Hospital were dumbfounded. His hemotoligist was called in.
. His red blood cell count is too high due to a blood disorder. ( a form of cancer that attacks the bone marrow) The bone marrow is making his body produce extra red blood cells (I don't remember the technical term) For now we have him on a daily injection of lovinox (?) and hydroxyurea (sp?). In addition we have to take him once a week to be bled.
I guess the point I am trying to make is a second opinion sounds like it is needed. Something is wrong and needs to be addressed. Being stubborn could have bad consequences. I hope it doesn't and wish him well.

Is there a mailing address that cards or well wishes could be sent,
or do you think he'd prefer to just stay in peoples thoughts as he is now?

Bill, let us know if Steve decides to go up to a REAL hospital. Kent Hospital sucks. Tell Steve he's in our thoughts and prayers. Best of luck with your surgery as well.

Billy,
Its awesome that steve has a friend like you to take care of him when stuff goes wrong. Very admirable
Tell Steve that "Block Island guy" I dont know why, but thats what he calls me, sends his best. Tell him we've all got him in our thoughts and wish him a speedy recovery.

thats character !
I hope it all works out for steve . But he needs to LISTEN . blockages are no joke . I have had 2 cleared myself and do a lot to stop them from forming again now. In steves defence its about what he finds comforting . He is comfortable and confident with his doctor .
give him my best
