I figured I'd give you all a quick recap of things. First, I still have no news from the law office. God, I hope we have a case. I really feel that they deserve to be embarrassed and feel like total and utter shit for what they have done. They deserve to feel the pain of knowing that they may have been able to prevent the death of a tiny little baby boy, someones son.
Don't worry I won't go on and on about how angry I am again, I know you're probably getting sick of it... I'll move on to the next point of recap. Secondly, Gregs diabetes is finally under control, his blood sugar is normal every day now. He hasn't gotten any headaches or anything. He's doing really good. He also will be starting school in the fall, I'm not sure if I've mentioned that or not...but he is.
And because of that...he won't be able to work much, so I will have to work. Meaning I can't get pregnant like I wanted to because I can't work while I'm pregnant. So I have to wait 3 years to have a baby...I hate it, it upsets me to no end, it kills me to think of waiting that long. But I don't have a choice, it's not about me now. It's about Greg, and Greg is going back to school. WHile I flip burgers and the nearest burger joint. We will be a great couple.
Okay maybe writing isn't such a good idea today, I woke up in this whole, self pity type of mood. So before I make you all hate me and think I'm the biggest whiner in the world, I'm going to go. I'll keep y'all posted on what happens with the lawyer and my placenta results.
Happy Blogging!!

Nolie, please do not be too upset if the lawyer's office doesn't take the case. I am only saying this because I am a paralegal and have worked with lawyers of all types for 16+ years. Some of the HARDEST cases to prove are medical malpractice cases, which this would be. The reason they are so difficult is because a doctor would have to testify that another doctor (your doctor) didn't do the right thing (which is true), and doctors in general will not do that.
ReplyDeleteMy sister lost her daughter at four months (she was three months premature). Savannah did not die because she was premature, she died from MRSA (a medical resistant form of staph) that she contracted from a nurse that did not properly sterilize the breathing machine my niece was on. When my sister went to an attorney with an air tight case of medical malpractice, she was turned down for the reason I stated above.
Not that there are not attorneys out there who can help you. You need NOT go to a general practitioner or even a tort lawyer. You need to find one that specializes in MEDICAL MALPRACTICE. They generally have on call a list of doctors that will testify against other doctors after they determine you have a case.
Whatever you do.....don't give up.
Yeah I know I will probably be turned down, but I have to try. I am dealing with an office that does specialize in medical malpractice. And if push comes to shove, I have my original doctor i go to that said he wants to look at my chart and said he would go to court with me if it comes down to that. But thank you for your advice, I appreciate it. :)
