I'm glad you mentioned that part of the discussion.

I was not going to discuss this but since you brought it up......I represent the survivors of a middle aged lady who broke her hip and unexpectedly died in a hospital. The hospital and the physicians--before I got involved--convinced the husband to allow her to be buried without an autopsy. Thus, the cause of death is incredibly difficult to establish to a legal certainty though I am positive that I "know" what happened, namely, she sustained an embolism, a not very unusual result when a middle aged woman fractures a large bone.

So, of course, I am minutely looking over the medical records trying to see if I can establish medical negligence. And what do I see? The most incredible medical chart notation I have seen since I was involved in a maritime case in which the sailor complained that his blood was "flowing backwards."

The lady predicted her own death a couple of days before it happened, and the nurse charted her words. Unbelievable. Stunned me.
