For those of you that don't know, I decided a couple of months ago to pursue a lawsuit against the care center that my mom saw just before she passed away. Yesterday I received some news from my lawyer that I've dreading this whole time. He said in most embolism cases, the patient is too far along to help or do anything for: Not in my moms case. If she would have been diagnosed properly and given the correct medication, there was more than a 90% chance that she would have been just fine. It just isn't fair. Knowing now for a fact that if I would have taken her to a real E.R and she would have been seen by a real Dr that she would more than likely still be here today...

From Chere and Larry Blake

Dear Lindsey,
I'm so sorry to hear of your Mom's passing. She was a wonderful woman. I only knew her from Alta Vista Veterinary, where she took care of a pup that I rescued who had a broken leg. Christy was truly wonderful, you could tell she genuinely cared for each and every animal she came in touch with. It was my pleasure to know her for such a short time. I just found out today of her passing when I visited Alta Vista for a refill of heartworm medicine. I was devastated!
God bless you and care for you in your loss.
With much love,
Chere' Blake, mom of Gus a 13 pound Pomeranian who loved his Dr. Iverson, too.
