I just got out of the hospital after 8 days of procedure and surgery for deep vein blood clots due to thoracic outlet syndrome which includes vascular repair and removal of my first rib. The clot could have been the end of me but I had wonderful doctors and nurses at UCSD medical, however, I am now out of money and can not work for at least a month, as I am a professional massage therapist. I'm calling out for help for basic living expenses ...and happy to give a discount on future massage services for those who donate to help me get thru this rough time. Every little bit helps.
