Scariest moment of our lives.... for real.

A simple knee surgery turned into the scariest moment of our lives.

After knee surgery Spencer felt great. Then a couple hours later......
he thought he was dying, literally. He started coughing up blood about 3 hours after we came home from his same day knee surgery. He couldn't stand up so I had to call my neighbor to help me carry him to the car (we are too poor to call an ambulance!) He ended up in the ICU for 2 days with what they thought was pulmonary edema, later to find out they have NO IDEA what it was. They did tests on him for days and couldn't come up with anything. Luckily he is young and healthy and is back to normal! The worst part for him was not being able to ride his bike for a month.
