My boss's wife had an aggressive form of breast cancer several years ago. For chemo she had a mediport inserted to pump the chemicals through her system. Her cancer is in remission. Periodically she has complained of feeling like she is being "strangled" but no one knew what this could be. She had the mediport removed last spring, but it didn't improve. A vascular surgeon told them last week that on one side the jugular vein is scarred and clogged 100% with blood clots, and the other side is largely blocked by the same kind of damage. He told them there was nothing they could do. This is a result of the chemo. There is a duo terror here of scars and blood clots. Next week they see a specialist in a much larger city in the state. I will keep my fingers crossed and think good thoughts, but they are believers in the power of prayer and I think they would benefit from your good wishes. Thanks.
