They will be performing a procedure on my dad where they insert a filter into his groin to keep the clots that are in his leg from going any further up. The Dr.'s name is Waltzer and my Dad likes him quite well. He answered all of his questions and seems to be very hopeful. Dr. Waltzer said that in 85% of the cases it is effective and the clots dissolve.
They told my dad and Barb that it is a miracle that my Dad is alive with the number of clots he has in his legs and the size of the clots in his lungs. AN ABSOLUTE MIRACLE!!! PRAISE THE LORD!!!
This procedure will be done in a couple of hours. I know they will also be looking into changing his chemo medicine since they believe this may be the cause of the clotting.
I am praising the Lord and thanking each of you for your prayers, love and concern!

All I can say was, "thank You Lord". I didn't want to scare you when I first commented because I believe in the power of praying and the miracle that comes from His healing hands. He is after all our Greatest Physician!
The truth was I had been antsy after I read the "update" post. So I kept asking the Lord to just help you, cover you with His comfort and just guide you with your decisions. Pulmonary embolism can cause a sudden death and I told the Lord, "I don't want to say that to sister Loren." "Why can't I say that it's not over and You are there doing all the procedures that her dad needs?" So, Lord, there...I said it...I just want to thank You...
I was at the verge of telling you to go see your dad, though it's hard with leaving your family, if you can...I feel that your presence gives him a boost...Consider it a sisterly advice, I wasn't afraid to tell you because I know your hubby is so supportive.
I'm praying that even this [comments]helps lighten your worries. To know that we do care. And love you the way Christ does. Blessings to you sister.
Loren,
What amazing news! I am so thrilled for your dad even though prayers remain necessary. We can truly never underestimate the power of prayer and just what God is capable of.

Thankful for the Lord's hand upon your dad's life. Still praying!
The blood clotting thing happened with my MIL's chemo. They changed it up and she's been fine ever since.
Praying for your Dad precious Sister!!
Loren - so so thankful that Dad had God's hand upon him with all those clots! Praying my sweet friend. Will be at the church again tonight and will say a special prayer for you and your sweet daddy.
All we have to do is ask and He answers!
