Re: Parents sue hospital over DS birth

[Guest guest]

Here is another article from the past. I thought I remember hashing this out before. I was talked out of having an amnio with Nate as the Genetisit told me that he did not have Down sydnrome and was a healthy baby. I was going to proceed with an amnio but he could not see me taking the risk. However, he did tell me he had been wrong a few time in the past. I was comfortable and put Down sydnrome or any health issues out of my pregnancy. I was surprised at birth and a weekend covering perinatologist was so upset that I didn't have an amnio and he wanted me to blame the Genetist and call the Genetisist to tell him. I so no reason to blame the Genetisit, he did the best he could do with the information and what he saw performing the US. He is human, not GOD. I think this lawsuit is crazy! I was given the option to adopt out my

baby and for me it was the biggest slap in the face, at that point, I was committed 110% to my baby! Do not know why this family put that doctor so high up on that pedastal as doctors are human and do make errors.http://www.oregonlive.com/news/index.ssf/2009/06/rare_prenatal_testing_case_rai.html Sherry Mom to Evan(11), Olivia(10), and (7)* "Anyone

what is awesome is that all of the comments made by readers are criticizing the parents for the lawsuit...they are all saying that having a child w/Ds is not a bad thing..I didn't read any comments from anyone defending the parents
