World Thrombosis Day…I love it! I’ve been sharing #stopdeadlyclots info-graphics all over FB. Thanks for all you do to spread awareness. Keep up the great work!
Thank you for the giveaway!!
I have posted my story on my FB wall to educate people on the risks and warning signs.
Thank you! Great idea and you never know who you may save.
This is so awesome!
Thank you!
I support World Thrombosis Day today and everyday! I share symptoms, I have shared my story through blood clot recovery network, on when I was diagnosed the first time I had multiple dvts in my left leg and first diagnosed with factor v Leiden heterozygous mutation, in hopes to help people who have just been diagnosed. I described my symptoms very well in my story, so people know what to look for, and also to let them know they are not alone.
Thank you, Cathy! I am so glad to have connected with you and aid in raising awareness by sharing your story. Thanks for keeping in touch too! 🙂
Love these. 🙂
Thank you!

I attended the World Thrombosis Day event in London today, it was educational, moving and thought-provoking and I am looking forward to next year’s event already.
Thank you! I am so glad you attended the London event. I would love to one day!
I’m wearing red today and informing co workers of my condition. I found a Co worker with symptoms and she has made an appointment to see her doctor.
“Survivors Unite!!” 🙂
Thank you! You just may have saved a life today or in the future. I hope your co-worker is okay.
I have shared my story on my Facebook page and am wearing red today in honor. I am always telling everyone how I got mine and to get tested if they feel there is cause for concern due to genetics. Also sharing lots of info on my page so people can read up and be informed. Thanks for the chance to win, I would wear these proudly.
Thank you! And thank you so much for raising awareness in your community. Good luck!
Hi all and dear Sara,
Wore red yesterday on the 13th and told MANY about my PE
Living down under in Australia we have NOTHING here, no WORLD THROMBOSIS DAY, except last night on the “NEWS” at 6pm on Channel 9, they did show that 40 people per day die of bloodclots. I wish more awareness would be made of the DANGERS of bloodclots but yesterday (13th) was the VERY FIRST time I had heard it mentioned and they interviewed a lady who had had a clot which resulted when she was 39 years old and ended up with a stroke. They did mention some of the symptoms but that was all.
I am a PE Survivor was diagnosed late April 2014 with many large clots which had travelled through my heart (stretched the right Ventricle) into my lungs. Haemotologist, Pulmonary Specialist and Cardiologist all said I should have died………only when I searched the net did I come across Sara’s “RECOVERY” blog and wept with relief……..Sara helped me SOOO much as have the posts of many of you other Survivors and CATHY W has my admiration what she all did with the hospital/doctors.
Am on Coumodin and because the clots were idiopathic will most likely be on it for life.
I have ALWAYS been a VERY active person and NEVER thought I would get a bloodclot.
Let us all make as many people as possible AWARE of PE and how it can change your life, IF you live to tell your story, MY GRATEFUL THANK YOU to Sara for keeping me sane and helping me via emails across the oceans.
There are no bracelets here I can purchase like are shown above, only ones you have to order from Medic Alert with inscriptions and they are NOT cheap and Pensioners don’t get concessions.
The VERY BEST to everyone.
Hello, my friend! Thank you for ALL OF YOUR KIND WORDS! It is always a pleasure to hear from you. 🙂 Thank you for sharing your story so that the others on this post may read too. I am glad to hear they had something on the news there. I have not seen anything in my local community yet. I wish we could talk more about blood clots like we do heart attacks, cancer and strokes. Like those things, it is a serious health concern that is effecting – and claiming the lives – of just as many, if not sometimes more, people.
Thank you!! I look forward to speaking with you again soon.
I was just diagnosed with PE in August! Good too know that I’m not alone!:)
Thank you! You are not alone. 🙂
Do you know where we can buy these bracelets?
