RE: Jely Roll

[Tracy Weese]

I am sorry to hear this.  I have waited on that call that the ashes are back many times.  And sometimese, when they call, I say thanks, I might not be able to pick them up just yet....but I always want to know when they are "home."  I'm going thru something similar right now with folks not being considerate/competent, too.  I have a very sick cat and after paying money UP FRONT at the ER Vet, and asking 4 times to make sure they fax all the blood work (I just paid up front for) to my regular vet, apparently that's too hard.... Then when I called to complain, they act like it's my fault and that they are doing me a favor!  I mean, my cat might be dying (my bank account def. is) and they can't be bother to get important info to my vet!   You'd think, in both of our situations, these folks would realize that pets are very important to (most) people.  Why else would someone take the time to cremate them and/or seek emergency care??    I hope you will soon be able to be happy for Jelly Roll--I know it often takes a while to get through our loss and realize that they are at peace.     Tracy Weese [EMAIL PROTECTED]       ----- Original Message ----- From: Barbara Lowe To: [EMAIL PROTECTED] Sent: 11/17/2004 8:58:26 AM Subject: Jely Roll I'm so sorry. I just need someone to talk to since my husband is out of town. I've been waiting for Jelly's ashes to come back-to get a call from the vet that they had his ashes back--adn I really thought I was handling his passing well--giving lots of attention to the other animals here but last night I looked aat the calendar and ralized, what th eheck where is he already?  I called the crematory this morning and they said he went to the specialists vet--called there--no cat. then thought let me try my regular vet jsut in case. well after searching yes they did have him since nov. 13th. no one called, the woman I just spoke to didn't even say "im sorry. I called the crematory to get whose signature is on the receiving form and will have to have a very painful discussion with the vets at my regular vet's office concerning this so no one else has to go thru this anguish. I will also be informing them (the office that has the records of ! my 8 pets)since my original vet had left their practice to open his own a fewmonths ago before this all happened (but I had stayed at first office because there is another good vet there)that I will be changing vets. thank god for the specialists' reception who just talked to me for 10 minutes and listened to me cry and comforted me. I know jelly's really playing in fields chasing his big sister and Lenny his adopted sister at the bridge but I still needed to have him back. sorry for typos and whatever i'm typing this without my contacs in. thanks for listening and being there. barbara and angel Jelly Roll
