Thats's bad news. Scary they don't even know what causes it. Is he at RI Hospital? I'm not a doctor but if I had something so long with 3 occurances , i'd be heading to a Boston hospital. Best of Luck Steve and I hope they figure it out fast for you.

Bill , maybe print info below out and give to Steve.

Very sorry to hear about the additional clots and back into ICU - I had spoken with him on Friday before this hit and he was looking forward to getting out and about.

All the best, mate. Hang in there, and wishing you a good diagnosis and a speedy recovery.

Bill, please ask steve if he has told the DR.s about all the glue is is so frequently in contact with.. If they know that he was in contact with that stuff, it might help them find a reason for his condition.

prayers sent to steve and his family. it might be a good idea for steve's family members to be tested for clotting disorders, too, as a lot of times they're hereditary.

fishing is not a love, but an obsession

Hope he gets better. He's a great guy and he opened my eyes to a whole new class of baits. Blood clotting problem? maybe its all that sluggo glue. Seriously, thay is harsh stuff. I probobly should be more careful around it too. Especially with the giant rubber eel multiple hook rigs I'm now making, modeled after Steve's slug-go rig, but w/ 3-5 hooks.

Wow, scary stuff. I used to fish with Steve when we were young surf pups so he is too young for this.

As bizarre as this sounds, leeches have proven valuable in restoring blood flow. Although I sound like Theodoric, Barber of York, I am serious.

Hope to see you in the shop and in the surf soon Steve.

Just got back from a visit with Steve, he is in much better spirits today and they are moving him out of the ICU and into a normal room...They installed permanent metal type tubes in the veins of his leg to keep them open...They also said he has a blood disorder that keeps his blood clotting...it is genetic, he will be on blood thinners for a long time if not forever and has to be carefull of cuts etc...other than that he thanks everyone for there prayers! and hopefully he will go home in a few more days..
