robot Posted January 20, 2008 Report Share Posted January 20, 2008 How nice for Miss Ash. Id like to know how her lawyers achieved even a result! As the honourable members may know, Ive been in a similar situation and Ive actually had advice warning me off from an action against "a" hospital, as it would be extremely difficult and expensive to establish for certain if the bug was contracted during surgery, or wether the bug was carried in from outside. Â However in my case that wont happen, as certain parts of the records have apparently disappeared... :confused: Â [ 20.01.2008, 11:32: Message edited by: robot ] Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Paul Kennedy Posted January 21, 2008 Report Share Posted January 21, 2008 ?5 million payout with taxpayers money, disgraceful. She does of course have the option to decline to accept it. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
