In March of 2026 I had the terrifying experience of having a Pulmonary Embolism. Two actually, accompanied by two infarcts (lung tissue death) with one in each lung. Oh, and a pleural effusion for good measure. I was transferred (almost airlifted) to a Level II trauma center where I spent two days in the ICU and two more in a regular room. It was a rough few days.
Here’s how it all unfolded.
