2,000 Miles from Mochi
by Christine A. Ohama
Words cannot convey my thanks and gratitude to the doctors, technicians and staff at ASG Hospital. While on my way to the East Coast, my precious little Mochi was viciously attacked by a much larger dog. When I found out the heartbreaking news, she was already in the hands of the experienced and caring doctors and staff at ASG, out of surgery and resting.
Of course, the next 48 hours were critical and although I was more than 2,000 miles from home, the doctors checked in with me on a regular basis by phone. They always took my calls, which I usually placed as soon as rounds were completed and they would call me with an evening update. Whenever I called, all I had to say is “Mochi,” and everyone seemed to know her.
In addition, ASG graciously allowed Mochi’s “aunties” to visit her and to meet with the doctors until I was able to return to L.A. Equally impressed with ASG, they assured me she was in the best place possible and getting the best of care, which was a huge relief.
It’s hard to believe that a week ago she was literally on death’s door. And today, she is resting at home and getting back to living her life. I am so very grateful for ASG and thankful that my little Mochi is on her way to a full recovery. Thank you ASG for giving her a second chance at life.
Most sincerely,
Christine A. Ohama
