[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Is that fair? I know we debate all the time about tort reform here. Wrongful death by NHS providers and services = 100K for a 1 year old that died of sepsis. If it were my 1 year old? I spent 60K alone on IVF to get him here. We've spent 30K on daycare. Not to mention the cost to "carry" him is around 150-200K if I were a surrogate. It's at least 100K just to get a baby earthside. As a settlement it seems like a slap in the face. Am I wrong? I think 300-500K seems more "reasonable"[/quote] Those were your costs in the US, right? Presumably they would have been less in the UK. If you qualify for IVF, it's covered by the NHS, right? At least that was my understanding, but it might be outdated. And daycare - how long would your family leave be? My colleagues in the UK are out for a year after they have their babies. [/quote]
