Funny, she sues AFTER the guy dies. She's also a quite ungrateful person. They were actually trying to help her husband live. It's going to hinder future studies of any kind due to fears of greedy/mislead ::expletive::s suing.
And because euthanasia isn't legal in America, isn't this kinda like suing the government for not allowing a assisted suicide to a family member and ending pain? What do you guys think? Also on an off-subject note, I looked at the Southwestern Bell Yellow pages, and the first page was abortion. And it lasted up to 16 pages. They really played on the slogan "Woman's Right to Choose!" hehe I think if you put Woman and Rights in the same sentence you can really get their attention :) PHILADELPHIA (AP) - The widow of a man who died after almost 10 months with an artificial heart filed suit Wednesday against the maker of the device and the hospital where it was implanted, saying her husband wasn't adequately informed of the ordeal he would endure. James Quinn, who died Aug. 26 after suffering a stroke, came to regret taking part in the trial of the self-contained heart and had talked about suing several months before his death, said his attorney, Alan Milstein. Milstein said Quinn told him, "No human being should have to go through what I'm going through." Rather than physical pain, Milstein said, "I think he was referring more to just the act of being an experimental subject, the prodding and the probing and the feeling that you were just an object being studied." But the suit, which seeks damages in excess of $100,000, also says shortly before his death Quinn could barely breathe "and was in constant, unbearable pain with extreme burning sensations in his back and throat." Spokeswoman Molly Tritt said officials at Hahnemann University Hospital hadn't seen the suit and wouldn't comment. Messages left with the heart manufacturer, Abiomed Inc., and Tenet Healthcare, which owns Hahnemann, weren't immediately returned. Quinn, 52, was implanted with the AbioCor artificial heart Nov. 5. He suffered a stroke Aug. 23 and was withdrawn from life support three days later. Of seven people implanted with the plastic-and-titanium Abiocor heart, only one survives. The trial began more than a year ago. ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~| Archives: http://www.houseoffusion.com/cf_lists/index.cfm?forumid=5 Subscription: http://www.houseoffusion.com/index.cfm?sidebar=lists&body=lists/cf_community Structure your ColdFusion code with Fusebox.
