I know the Jilineks. My son was born one week before Laine. Both of our sons have the same brain injury. I know firsthand the struggle that they go through. Laine and his family were not only let down by the hospital but also by the early intervention therapy system that denied him the full spectrum of therapies he could have received due to budget constraints. This money will never make up for the loss they have suffered and continue to suffer watching their Angel grow up but stay perpetually an infant. The money can only provide the best for Laine, to make his life the best is can be. Shame on anyone for even suggesting that greed had anything to do with their lawsuit.
