Serena Williams
Tennis champion, Serena Williams, suffered a life threatening embolism this week, resulting in hospitalization. Williams sustained a leg injury last year, which required her to wear a cast. It is believed the embolism formed during this time. A hematoma was found in her lungs, which created respiratory distress.
Williams has been placed on a course of blood thinners, which could end up being administered for a long time, depending on the severity of the situation. Blood clots are dangerous, as they can turn fatal rather quickly. Therefore, it is imperative to receive proper medical treatment and the corresponding medications as soon as possible.
Williams has achieved much on and off the court. There needn't be any rush to return to tennis to prove anything, as you are thought of by many as the best of all time. The Judiciary Report encourages Williams to take as much time off as needed and wishes her a speedy recovery.
