Season 3 Episode 6

When experiencing the splendor and the intrigue of culture and communities halfway across the world, we’re reminded of the complex yet similar life experiences we all share. When it comes to blood clots, it takes a singular event to bring these miraculous journeys to a close. How do we protect ourselves from  the covert and dangerous experience of a clotting event? 

In this episode of Taking a Breath, World Traveller and Blogger Sherry Ott shares with us her journey as a lifelong explorer as well as her experience as a blood clot survivor. Alongside NBCA President Leslie Lake and NBCA Patient Liaison Todd Robertson, this conversation explores not just survival and loss, but what it means to chart a path that will save countless lives to follow. Listeners will hear practical insights on recognizing warning signs, advocating for yourself in medical settings, and finding community in the wake of significant loss. 

Together, with listeners like you, we continue working to Stop the Clot®.
