A Long Process
October 25th, 2012 @ 11:45 am

As of October 25th, 2012, I hadn’t heard anything from mom’s lawyer, Steve Phillips of Pincus & Currier, LLP, since he replied to an email two weeks before that. It’s really nerve-wracking to have no idea what is happening, or to feel like nothing is happening. I sent him this email on the morning of […]

Autopsy Bill
October 16th, 2012 @ 8:16 am

I called Dr. Wolf on the morning of October 16th, 2012 because apparently she was concerned about the status of my bill with her for performing the autopsy on mom. I explained that I had unfortunately completely misunderstood Steve Phillips, my attorney; I had thought that his law firm was going to remit the other […]

Central Florida Podiatry
October 15th, 2012 @ 11:25 am

My sister sent me a bill addressed to mom and dated August 21st, 2012. It’s from Central Florida Podiatry for — as far as I can tell — a pedicure mom received on March 20th. She was at Grace Manor at the time. The bill is for $100.00 due to Dr. Agnes K Bartoszek. I […]

Status Update Request
October 9th, 2012 @ 9:06 am

Here is an email I sent to attorney Steven Phillips at 9:06 AM on October 9th, 2012: Hey Steve, Has there been any progress at all with my mom’s case? I am becoming increasingly anxious that as more time passes, it is more and more likely that records — especially ones from Woodland Terrace — […]

Autopsy / Brain
September 18th, 2012 @ 11:56 am

In the middle of September I remembered how cold Dr. Caliendo sounded when he told me that there would be no way to tell what (if anything) was wrong with mom’s brain until she was dead and we performed an autopsy. So I sent this email to my attorney this morning: Hey Steve, This is […]

Coming Home
September 17th, 2012 @ 1:59 pm

I called Allen at Cusack Mortuary today on my walk back to the office from lunch. He answered the phone himself and apologized for not replying to my emails. (He said they were having Internet connection problems in the office.) He asked how I was doing and I told him that I was still having […]

I sent the following email to attorney Steve Phillips of Pincus & Currier, LLP on September 17th, 2012. I attached a photocopy of the bill I received from Rxperts Pharmacy, which was postmarked September 13th, 2012.   Hey Steve, I received a bill from Rxperts Pharmacy (attached) for $1320.28. (1) It shows a line item […]

Pulmonary Thromboembolism Associated with Risperidone
September 11th, 2012 @ 11:16 pm

I sent this email to attorney Steve Phillips of Pincus & Currier, LLP on September 11th, 2012: Dear Steve, I asked Dr. Wolf if she would share her email address with me and she said that she would not. She said that because of the state of Florida’s broad and liberal public records laws, she […]

A Call from Steve
September 11th, 2012 @ 3:30 pm

Attorney Steve Phillips of Pincus & Currier, LLP called me on the afternoon of September 11th, 2012. After a few pleasantries he told me that he had talked to Dr. Wolf the previous day, and that he requested the medical records and insurance information from Woodland Terrace. 1 Steve said that Dr. Wolf thinks that […]

Pathology Update
September 11th, 2012 @ 6:56 am

I called Dr. Wolf on my way to work this morning. I was concerned because I started wondering if the reason Dr. Peele had refused to sign the death certificate was because he was waiting for the results of the autopsy, and I wanted to make sure that Dr. Wolf would not share the results […]
