Get well soon, Sam! |
Sam Bass, NASCAR's first officially
licensed artist, continues to recover from surgery for complications resulting
from another severe blood infection. A life long Type 1 diabetic, Bass
was hospitalized twice in 2014 and spent 10 weeks in treatment as a result of
sepsis, a severe blood disorder that often results in loss of limbs or even
death.
"I tremendously appreciate the
prayers and continued support of everyone during this extremely difficult
time," Bass said.
The artist expects to be released
from the hospital in the middle of the week.
Bass' battle with sepsis began in February
2014. Complications with the severe blood infection resulted in multiple
surgeries for the NASCAR artist and led to a long road to recovery. Able
to return to the track just three months later, Bass suffered another setback
in October 2014, when a less severe infection returned to his
bloodstream.
Now familiar with the warning signs, Bass was able to get
the medical attention he needed before this latest bout with infection
escalated. After undergoing surgery last Wednesday, Bass expects to be released
from the hospital midweek, to continue recovery at home.
