"It started on August 1st," Kaden's mother Maurine Clymer said. "His dad took him to the emergency room after he was having severe pain in his back and legs."
Teammate Tyson Rodriguez added "I was a bit confused because I didn't really know what was happening. He just told me that he wasn't feeling good."
The night before the Wauseon Indians took to the field for their first Fall team practice, Clymer unexpectedly had to be taken to Toledo Children's Hospital.
"His calves were swelled up four inches larger, in circumference, than they are now," Maurine Clymer said. "So, he was very uncomfortable."
Kaden Clymer added "I just wanted to go home honestly. I didn't really care what they did to me, I just wanted to go home."
Full of pain and uncertainty, Clymer received word that he had blood clots in his legs.
"I was really sad. I was crying and upset because I've played football my whole life and I just wanted to play with my friends," the junior lineman said.
Six feet of blood clots were removed and because of the blood thinners he now has to take, Clymer's football career is over.
Doctors are mystified.

No, it's not strange. It's called Deep Vein Thrombosis. It's a different condition than Thrombosis with Thrombocytopenia, which has sometimes been recorded after vaccination with the J&J and AstraZeneca vaccines (but not the Pfizer and Moderna ones).
But what the hell, go ahead and blame it on the vaccines anyway if that makes you happy.

I can't find anywhere that this victim was actually covid vaccinated. Although from stats in Ohio, around 50% of students in grades 7-12 as of Sept. 2021 are. So, it may be so but it would be nice to know if it is truly related to the vaccine. It makes a difference.
