Cora Louise Bryant was 64 when she suffered cardiac arrest during dialysis at the DaVita Healthcare Clinic in Lufkin, Texas, on April 22, 2008. She initially survived that event but died three months later on July 15, 2008. Her death was one of several sudden cardiac events at the clinic that month that drew outside attention.

Forensic testing of patient blood and dialysis equipment found evidence of chlorine exposure; Bryant’s blood tested positive for 3-chlorotyrosine, a biomarker indicating contact with bleach. Investigators say multiple patients experienced unexplained cardiac incidents during that period, and the pattern prompted involvement from federal and local authorities.

Witnesses reported seeing a clinic staff member draw bleach into syringes and inject it into dialysis lines, and that person was present during the incidents and observed behaving nervously. Does anyone have information about Cora Bryant’s care at the clinic or knew her family that could add context to her final months?
