A decorated Vietnam veteran in Wildomar is sharing his struggle to get much-needed medical care from his local VA hospital: 'I was literally losing my mind because the pain was so intense.' That's when he decided to call his local congressman.
CORONA, Calif. -- Stephen Richey walks slower than he used to, but he's in a much better place than he was a few months ago.The Wildomar resident said he suffered debilitating pain for nearly three years following surgery after a fall at home left him with a crack in his hip joint.
His surgery had been outsourced to another hospital, but his ongoing care was in the hands of the VA. It's a positive outcome that took nearly three years to resolve and only with help from his local congressman.The surgery authorization came after Jackie Lansing, a caseworker for the congressman, sent repeated emails and made countless calls to the VA inquiring after Richey's care.
