Re: Catholic hospital 'risked woman's life by forcing her to deliver 18-week fetus[W:
Well said.
I would like to comment on the weather issue.
While I cannot find the weather report for early December 2010 in Muskegon the weather in the southeast area of the state was snowy and several accidents were reported.
It is important to note that Muskegon is located on Lake Michigan so it gets a lot of lake effect snow in the winter.
Minnie posted a link to the suit in post 427.
FIrst of all, she did the absolute proper thing to go to the closest hospital when she was in distress. She was pregnant and having issues. On top of that she did not drive herself, someone was driving her. By the way, anyone want to comment on what weather to expect in December?
Peruse the suit, the accusations are not vague at all. When this comes to trial, they will not be answering vague accusations, but very specific ones.
If by design, they doctors did not or could not give her proper education - so she could weigh options properly - they may be in a bit of trouble.
But like you said, there is one side.
But heck if she should have initially gone to the hospital much further away. That is bull. She had a pregnancy that was in danger - what she did not apparently know was that the continued pregnancy was totally on the failure track and her own health was in danger. If she was told this, she could have made the decision to stop the pregnancy now (that was already failing) and have someone drive her or take an ambulance to that other hospital which you say was 37 miles away.
I will be interested to see the other side.
