Nightmare and fear of stepping foot into a hospital ever again
A life long of hell because because to deliver at that hospital you have to sign away that they are not accountable for any infections or even if you die.
I will not be silent about the hell I have gone through because of that surgeon’s one mistake.
I am so sorry you went through all of that… your story is a solid reminder that depending on location and surgeon, c sections can be very dangerous. I have always hated signing the forms at hospitals because of the clauses that show they can do no wrong. Even if you win a malpractice case I know your personal health issues will still exist, but I hope you find a lawyer and win.
