Subject: RE: RE: RE: Sorry Charlie
Um...Sorry the analogy was lost on you. I'll try to dumb it down for it for you.
If (notice the word if) these doctors acted in an improper way, they can be held liable. Just like if we went into a contract and I didn't hold up my end, you would sue me. If these doctors performed the surgery and didn't follow the proper procedure, and as a result caused a two week coma, they should be held liable. If they did everything they were supposed to do, and the surgery just went bad or the patient didn't do what he was supposed to do, they are not. Do you see how that works? When you don't follow the rules, you get punished.
Wait, that might be kind of hard for you. Try this one...if the speed limit is 55 and you drive 65, a police officer can give you a ticket for not following the rules. If you're a doctor and you don't follow the surgical protocols (don't worry, that's just a fancy word for rules), you can be held liable.
I hope this clears it up for you.
