sued successfully:
A mother has grown tired sitting up with her baby daughter in the hospital where the daughter
has RSV (Respiratory Syncytial Virus) so she stops by the nursing station and asks the nurse to
check on her baby while she gets some breakfast, the nurse says she will, the baby develops a
choking obstruction from drainage and stops breathing, when the mother returns she finds her
baby lifeless, the baby is resuscitated, and the baby suffers severe brain damage.
