She was supposed to be fine after a heart valve replacement and at first she was and then things went south. Her kidneys werent working and then she had internal bleeding and then she passed away. She was a wonderful woman and we miss her very much. I hear heparin is cheaper than other drugs for blood clotting but if we would have known about these cases and has a choice of what to give her we would have chosen the more expensive drug that would have quite possible kept her alive.
