Basically after her latest kid she went into the hospital to have a removable IUD installed into her uterus, and came out with her tubes permanently tied.

My take: The hospital screwed up BIG time and she definitely has a case. However, I'm not sympathetic to her because she is an unmarried, unemployed, mother of 9. She doesn't have custody of 2 or 3 of them, and is receiving public assistance for 2 of the however many still live with her. 2 of them are no longer minors. So, while I feel her suit is correct, this was probably the best thing that will ever happen to her.

Discuss.

She has a case I would think, but I agree, that was probably the better of the two outcomes.

What's to discuss? I agree with you on this one.

I may be weird, but the way I see it is this way. Different circumstances for different people. If this had happened with a married mom of any amount of kids, and not on public assistance, I'd hope the hospital gets whacked with a big settlement.

In this case though, she can't afford the kids she has, has a long history of public assistance, so her reward is she just got that surgery for free!

Complete screw up by the hospital and I'm sure they will pay for it in court............

However on a complete side note..................... score a win for Karma .

Yeah the hospital screwed up big time and I suspect will pay through the nose. Too bad she can just use this an excuse to sponge even more off the system. I love working hard so others don't have to. Welfare has to have a time limit to give people an incentive to better themselves. Otherwise you get people like her.
