| I just wanted to say thank you to everyone for responding. We have talked to a law graduate and he said we should have a case of negligence. We did all the pre-test to check for risk factors of going under and he tested normal for everything. We think the vet tech wasn't watching him like she was supposed to. by the time she did notice his gums were white from losing oxygen. Instead of going ahead and starting CPR or hooking him to an oxygen machine,(because he already had a tube in his throat for oxygen), she left my dying puppy on the table and went and got the vet out of anohter surgery, the vet left the other surgery , which was started 5 minutes after my puppys surgery, and put my puppy back into his surgery room then administered CPR. by then it was too late. What i don't understand is why they could not help him breath in the recovery room. i mean isn't that what a recovery room is for. SO we are investigating negligence on the vets office. They also told us that 1 out of every 20 pitts die from anistestia there . thats not right the odds are to high. other vets say they can't remeber the last time they lost a dog. Thanks for everyones support. |
