Look for unfortunate death due to blood clot, easy enough, air injection and voila! Then they’ll have the docs who said Andrew Breitbart had a heart attack (no puncture wounds to neck?) proclaim post-surgical complications.

The kabuki theater in these committees is about to come to an end. This is a good thing to see.

My husband had six weeks for ankle surgery, but he worked from home after a few weeks even though his doctor didn’t want him to work at all.

Can’t wait. Perp walks do a lot to restore the sense of law and order being enforced again. Free up seats for Patriots.

You left out that he said he could leave earlier than his term of office. Agree, something doesn’t smell right about this guy. I can recall the USSS leaking information about him when he criticized their behavior. The leak was that Chaffetz had applied to join the USSS and was turned down for undisclosed reasons. IMO someone has some dirt on him or there is a scandal about to break.

This one is perfectly understandable

A broken heel is considered to be one of the most painful and debilitating injuries you can have

There are very few positive outcomes with this kind of injury and its only a matter of time before serious chronic arthritis sets in to cripple you

Jason had an especially serious fracture and the xrays show serious loss of bone density and erosion of the bone due to the metal implants

The erosion is so bad that the sharp tips of the screws have become exposed which can destroy tissue, muscle, tendons and ligaments

If he gets an infection, he could lose the the entire heel

He has obviously been living with this and putting off surgery for quite some time and he must be under excruciating pain Perhaps he has chosen to retire to devote time to doing what he wants to do while he can still walk < p>

His foot was probably damaged while pulling it out of Comey’s nether-hole.

Q: Do Critters get to keep the same health insurance after they leave?

Hubby had one of those Boston Scientific electric shock things hooked to his spine and implanted in his back last summer. They didn’t even keep him overnight in the hospital.

And.....hit the post button too soon lol......I had foot surgery a year ago. The bunion joint on big toe. Dremeled out arthritic bone and spurs and put an implant in to connect foot to toe. Off my feet for 3 days and in a shoe for 2 weeks.
They really are special.

I would not be shocked if news breaks of some major scandal involving Jason Chaffetz. His behavior recently is too bizarre. Is he running from a scandal? The foot issue makes no sense as just days ago he said his health was fine.
