My ex has been hospitalized three times in the past week with massive bleeds. Prior to this a month ago, he had knee surgery which showed 4 blood clots and he was told then not to take another drink or die. As I am the ex,I am not privy to much info, however, my ex mom in law siad they had removed fluid 3 times. He did call me to tell me that he was giving me a heads up about getting ready in three weeks. He was diagnosed with cirrhosis in 2000 and continued to drink. He was diagnosed with diabetes in 1993 and continued to drink. Is the the end stage and is he on the way out?

I am so sorry about your ex. However, we can't possibly guess if this is the end or not. Please take care - best bet would be to talk directly with him.
