Playing Devil's Advocate here...I wouldn't be surprised if Lee's survival could go either way in episode 5 depending on decisions you make in that episode and decisions you've made in past ones. For example, I don't think there's much hope for him OR Clem if he's going at it alone, but if he's got a whole group with him then there might be a small chance he'll pull through.
Especially true if the amputation idea becomes a reality. Lee would be a bleeding, one-handed tragedy who couldn't fight his way out of a paper bag for a long time. That's not the kind of plan you take when you're all alone. If he has some support, though, it may become a possibility. Slap a tourniquet on the arm until business is taken care of, then amputate that crap when you've gotten to relative safety.
Of course it's all a huge amount of "maybe"s and "if"s. TTG could really make a hundred resolutions considering it's the final episode...but who knows how things will pan out.
Now...personally? As much as I love Lee, I'm not seeing a happy ending for this. I never did.
Edit: I should note that I'm not a reader/watcher of the TV series or comics. It's totally possible that the above idea wouldn't work jack shit and I just don't know it.
