The actor Morgan Freeman is doing well after the recent car accident that he was involved in. He had surgery done to reconnect nerves and repair damage to his left arm and hand.

Oldest Brother from Pop Group Hanson Leaves Hospital

Isaac Hanson, oldest brother of the pop group Hanson, left the hospital on Friday after doctors removed a blood clot that made his right arm painfully swell during a concert. He had surgery on Thursday for venous thoracic outlet syndrome, which interrupted the blood flow from his arm to his heart.

In the next few months, he will have to have a rib removed to help to open his vein and prevent any more clots. In the meantime, he will have to be on blood thinners. His condition isn’t life threatening but there is a chance that it can cause permanent disability if it isn’t treated in good time.
