[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]My DC had 2 surgeries at CHOP. Both times there was a patient with obvious mental disabilities on the post-surgical floor. To say that CHOP denied this girl surgery b/c of her mental ability is BS. We ONLY have the mother's account. And she's got an agenda. CHOP can't discuss b/c of HIPPA. Do they actaully have a family donor ready to go or are they hoping to find one? Also I don't see stories of other Children's Hospitals rushing to say that they'll do the surgery. There is a reason for that. The girl has a very genetic syndrome that can impact her ability to even survive the surgery itself let alone recovery etc. [/quote] There are 2 sides to every story. What about the risk of liability to the hospital and doctors involved for taking on such a high risk surgery?! [/quote] If the liability risk is so high, it's because the risk of death is so high. I think you are arguing against your point.[/quote]
