Suit is settled in malpractice case

Fair lawsuit | 11:02 a.m. Nov. 6, 2008

If anyone has followed Lisa's story, they'll realize that this lawsuit was fair...and hopefully will help prevent the same hospital-caused injuries to another patient.

I can't imagine having a wonderful experience like a new addition to the family turn into such life-changing health challenges. My best to Lisa and her family in their struggles. I hope the settlement of this suit will bring you peace and hopefully, financially, some security now and for the future.

I'm so sorry any of this happened, I hope the money will help improve your quality of life and make day to day life a little easier. I know money can't possibly replace what was taken, but hopefully the temporal help will give you some measure of comfort until all is restored to you.

This was a tragic, devastating ending to what should have been the happiest day of Lisa's life. I hope she got the full amount of the suit, she and her family deserve more! Money can not replace what these negligent doctors and nurses took from Lisa and her family. They should all rethink their denial of wrong-doing!!

It's easy to throw the blame around isn't it? My heart goes out to Lisa and her family, but to those of you calling for the heads of the medical professionals involved I think you should step back and think about what happens when you make a mistake. What kind of responsibility do you have and are you allowed to make mistakes at home or work? Physicians aren't. How would it be to live a life where mistakes are unacceptable? You think these people are enjoying life in their ivory towers?
