A leg up

Of course I lift my leg! I am a boy dog. Lifting up your leg is just what you do when you are boy dog.
Well....what about our veterans? Looks like the VA system did exactly that to many.

Veteran to Colorado VA: You ‘Owe Me a Leg’

 

Local media stories from across the country indicate the problems with VA medical centers are much more widespread than national media may be reporting.

KKCO in Grand Junction, Colorado ran a story detailing the plight of two veterans. One bluntly said the VA’s lack of urgency cost him his leg.

Larry Wilkinson said a VA doctor never called him with the test results of a foot infection and after two months of no news, he had to have his leg amputated.
“I feel the VA owes me a leg,” Wilkinson said.

 Another VA patient, Richard Worsley, said when he was showing symptoms of a heart attack, he was taken to St. Mary’s even though he wanted to go to the VA Medical Center. He then received a bill for more than $8,000.
