The worst day of Adam "DJ AM" Goldstein's life may have just kept him alive longer than if that awful plane crash never happened.

AM told People mag that, while being treated for the burns he sustained in the accident, doctors found a potentially fatal blood clot in his leg.

"In the burn center, they did a scan and found that I had a blood clot that in this flight could have traveled to my heart and I could have died."

Ironically enough, the blood clot was a result of so many hours spent on planes, flying around the world from gig to gig.

The medical team at the burn center put a filter in his vein and prescribed blood-thinning medication to prevent complications related to the clot.

"I have a great deal of faith that everything happens for a reason," he says. "I put myself in God's hands."

Fate works in funny ways.
