[QUOTE="bbsam, post: 655683, member: 22662"] I too am sorry to hear of your loss, but I think it could have happened here as well. Hell doctors here have cut off the wrong limb, left surgical sponges in patients, and the list goes on and on. As far as diagnosis goes, my sister-in-law went years being told that she was allergic to just about every edible substance in grocery store. Finally found out six months ago it was a freakin' tape-worm! So it seems to me that these cases exist in every health care system, socialized or for profit. Why do you think medical malpractice insurance is so expensive? It's because doctors, no matter how careful and thorough the aim to be, are human and will make mistakes. And when doctors and surgeons make mistakes the results can be catastrophic or in your uncle's case, deadly.:peaceful: [/QUOTE]
