WTF. So the woman gives birth, has no arms or legs, and when she asks what the hell happened.. "Oh, we can't tell you that. You're asking for information that would violate other patients' rights."

[espressive]

SUE THE FREAKIN HOSPITAL!
that's my two cents.

but seriously, her body must be seriously worn out. she just gave birth and then she became a basketcase in less than 2 weeks. oh, and i have a question that needs clarification. don't patients usually have to sign consent forms for surgeries? maybe i watch too much grey's anatomy & house.

actualy its called implied consent if its lifethreating the hospital reserves the right to operate on you.
but then there are also some places that have partial implied consent in which they go to the husband or immediate family member ask ask them to sign a consent form on their behalf.
