When a Houston-area family wanted to cremate their dad, they needed a death certificate, but the doctor kept delaying so they Turned to Ted.
HOUSTON, Texas -- When Alexandra Dunn and Tracy Schneck's mom died last August, the sisters had her cremated and planned on taking her ashes to her favorite vacation spot in Florida over the holidays.
In Texas, a person cannot be cremated unless the death certificate has been signed. Dunn's children said they kept waiting for the doctor to sign it, but days passed and then weeks. Despite daily calls for an update, Schneck said they couldn't get a clear answer on when the death certificate would be signed or what was causing the delay. After 24 days of waiting, they Turned to Ted.
An HCA spokesperson told us it was an administrative glitch and that the physician involved is"an independent member of the HCA Houston Healthcare Clear Lake medical staff and is affiliated with a contracted hospitalist group."
