in a photo sent to her via Text. Couple things are playing havoc with him. First is his Blood Oxygen levels kept dropping and then he developed Lung Blood Clots. Blood thinners as well as Oxygen therapy seems to be helping as of today. His whole body is one major bruised look.

The real threat is loss of balance caused by Blood Oxygen drop. Plus,mini strokes have occurred and per his Doc,expect more to come.
