Woman Sues Hospital for Putting her Miscarried Fetus in her Purse
 

A hospital in Australia is being sued by a woman who says the fetus she miscarried 18 weeks into her pregnancy was placed by staff into the bag containing her personal effects. A towel was wrapped around it and inside a package with her name on it.

The hospital has been sued many times in recent weeks for malpractice, including a damaged penis from a collapsed operating bed during a procedure; a girl suffering brain damage during birth; and a death due to excessive bleeding after giving birth.

Luke Mullane, Ballarat Health spokesman, said recommendations will be considered on improving quality, adding there "have been a number of changes made in our procedures to ensure that families have the opportunity to consider their care options."

the question is, who doesnt want to take home a miscarried fetus???

not normal...

That is absolutely outragious!!

She would have sued them if they had not given it to her. It was a no win situation.

That's too fucked up

That is so sad...

That certainly could have been handled better?????

that's scary

that's sad

put it in a jar?

I say decapitate all staff members.

I'm eating, and I wanna puke right now

Why would some one want it? I find this very disturbing :s

One way or another thats fucked up

They fucked up way too much. Hopefully she gets a nice sum of $$$ out of this.

That sounds a little off.

that is just wrong

She is going to clean up big time. That is one helluva serious fuck up.

Same here. WTF?

The hospital is wrong about that, but suing them because they put the fetus in her bag is of no so much sense.. It's her baby after all, well unless she didn't have any mercy:(

That is messed up

Damn that is some fucked up shit...

The hospital should have put the fetus into a more decent container such as a sealed glass jar then inform the mother that it was placed in there :)

fucked up shit.............that lady probably went nuts when she saw that.......who wouldn't?.........shit like that leads me to believe they have monkeys taking care of people in that hospital..:Oh crap
