sounds typical...when i tried to get a medivac from the guy's insurance company..it took too long so we just arranged it locally hoping for the best and luckily his insurance did end up paying for it in the end I think...act now...worry about the insurance later.

someone MUST get a hold of Ron's daughter .... she posted on facebook an hour ago - not that long ago !!!!

why would the ambulance not take your husband to the VA hospital Gypsy Jan ?

Maybe one can call a private ambulance service if there is such a thing ?

anyone know someone in the navy who can provide info on ambulances ? can anyone go to ron's house and get his wallet which probably has his medical record number - insurance information etc ... he is very very organized.

It's my understanding there's also a Christine that's been advised of his situation and is on her way down to Ensenada as well...

Not sure who's who.

that is excellent news.

we need someone BIG in the navy to handle this

mostly we need someone to get Ron's wallet. I presume he was at home and just going over to the neighbor's without it .... Cristina as well ...

If someone wants to u2u me the address, i can have a friend pop on over.

DOES ANYONE KNOW??

What about the service that Discover Baja offers...the one operated by the woman who can help you be medical evac'd and who helps you cut through the difficulties of dealing with legal problems, etc.

Does anyone know her name and can she be contacted to help????

There are people who came up with Ron and Cristina from SQ. I can't believe they would do that without gathering their credentials. They know the system here.

What has to happen is an ambulance company here must be hired to transport the patient to the border and a US ambulance has to be there to receive him/her.
It has to be organized and without a doctor on the case, that's tough to do.

Here is an example of the service here in Ens:

According to my yellow pages, this is their email:

transmed@telnor.net

It can be deduced that there is a doctor on the case.

If his daughter has given verbal consent to treatment and treatment has been started in the hospital, then a hospital-authorized doctor has tacitly accepted Ron as a patient, presumably assessed, and issued orders for medical treatment.

There is no hospital in the world that operates without a doctor being on-call.

I've got to step away from the computer and the phone for a little while, but will check back in about 20 minutes...
I think in order to transport the patient there needs to be written consent, which is why the daughter is probably on her way here now :)

Sirenita....we need an update on Cristina. Can you impose upon your friends at Del Carmen to make a phone call? It can't be just anybody.

My source of info, Dr. Janene, is off grid for a few hours.

The family member I heard back from indicated this: "I talk to his doctor and I'm on my way to the hospital I'll be there in 2-3 hours"

That was an hour ago.

She just sent me another message *just now* stating:

"My dad opened his eyes"
