  • What is DVT?!: Easy to read article about Deep Vein Thrombosis.

I?m glad there?s some people out there trying to raise awareness about a lesser known condition. Overall this was a very good read, especially after my wife was diagnosed.

The pictures make it really a difference in the tutorial. There are also tips that help you avoid common problems. Really nicely done. And this site also has other articles that are really interesting. I just wanted to share this with everyone.
