My Snowball died from this, but my mom's cat Arthur lived about 2 years after throwing a clot-- he regained some but not all function in his back legs. He died 2 years later of it, but he was also 17 years old.

Del,
Oh, I am so sorry to hear about "your" Sam. Reading your post brought
back memories of "my" Sweet Sam. He was also six years old when he threw a
clot that resulted in hind leg paralysis.
I rushed him to the Emergency Vets when it happened (at 1:00 A.M. on a
Sunday morning, of course).
Is there anyone on this list with the experience
of cardiomyopathy and leg paralysis?
Is there a group ... do you know the
addy?
Sweet Sam is 6 years old and this morning threw
a clot ... he's at the vet for heparin therapy ... prognosis never good with
this.

It's not a hugely busy list but they get talking when there is
something to talk about. Mike sisters 18 year old cat had this happen
last year, they had to express his bladder and it took quite awhile of
physical therepy (she would massage his back legs) and lots of love but
he did pull out
