It's Friday and she is in for her Greenfield Clot Filter. It goes in the vena cava via a catheter and collects clots before they reach the heart and lungs. Here's a picture of it.

The Thursday / Friday Update
On Thursday, Judith doctors had a look at her heart to determine if there are things going on that we haven't previously thought about. They didn't find anything further. Her arteries looked free of obstructions. So, good news, but it means that there is something going on that we don't have a finger on yet.

Can you tell me where you got this image of the Greenfield Filter - I would like to use it in a book and need permission. Thanks, WK
I took the picture, and you may use it - as long as you send me a copy of the book!
