I will focus on what this suit is about and not personnal opinions.
One of the biggest problems in the medical malpractice world are these types of suits. Why should one not be responsible for their own actions. I have worked in enough areas of insurance to see this all too often. The woman who smokes after plastic surgery and then sues because her wounds do not heal. How about the woman who refused a C-Secion because she did not want a scar. Her child ended up having CP. Is that the doctor’s fault? I don’t believe so, but she still won a judgement.
There is no personal responsibility left in the US. How about the attorneys who go after these cases? Should they be held liabile for all the money they are costing the medical providers?
Isn’t PP an organization who has to comply with HIPPA? Should they have knocked on the patients door at home and said “Hi, we are here from PP to take your daughters dialator’s out.”
Let’s take some responsibility for our own actions here…we all need to grow up!
Personal responsibility must be taken for individual action. Unfortunately the system still enables the deep pocket syndrome, and while a litiguous society roars rampant, the ultimate arbiters of the Blame Game are the judge and jury.
I don’t know how either PP or the care providers work, but contracts, waivers etc are typically set aside in the face of negligence.
My guess is that there will be so many suits, cross suits and countersuits that the only entity NOT making an acceptance of liability will be the estate of the deceased. This will probably settle out for much less than the original demands.
We can only hope that an educated jury is on the case.
It should settle out for nothing. I have been in the hospital enough to know that waivers, etc are signed at every doorstep one crosses. Too bad they don’t mean much anymore.
So WWJD in IRAQ? Do you think he would be using an M-16? Would he trhow the switch to let deadly chemicals flow into the veins of a convicted criminal? It has always amazed me at how people can split hairs about “saving the unborn” but sit in judgement for those who not only were already born but have lived for several years, and decide that killing them serves….what “justice”? I feel sorry for this young lady but the chain of events that lead to her demise were due to much of her own choices, beginning with having unprotected sex….
Liar! Your opposition to killing is limited to a single event. Don’t you know that only mankind has devised a method of grading “bad” behavior by saying some things are more evil than others. So killing the unborn is anathema but killing adults is a part of life, if you can justify it? GET REAL!
Does anyone else find it ironic that some here are using this case as a pro-God, anti-abortion, vehicle, when this girl died because she DIDN’T have the abortion ?? If she went back to the clinic the next day and completed the procedure she would still be alive !!
A lot of the postings are gone which is a good thing since most of them were off topic. What most of the zealots failed to realize is that this woman completely cause her own death via lack of any personal responsibility. Sad state of our society.
I feel it is appropriate to say this again since we are all off the subject it seems…

Let’s assume the clinic that specializes in this procedure gave this woman the proper advice/instruction about returning the following day to have the expanders removed prior to the abortion. A 21 year old woman should know enough to follow those directions or to at least notify the clinic she changed her mind so they could remind her to come in and have them removed. This woman failed to act responsibly. This is not malpractice. The mother either wants to have someone say her daughter wasn’t an irresponsible idiot, and/or make some money over this.

…for putting the topic on-point.

thanks Joe for saying it so well!

Yes GB the irony is almost lyrical.
