Sorry for your loss, I lost my grandparents when I was 12.

 

My dad died a week and a half ago, he was 67. He went for a kidnet replacement and was deathly allergic to the medicine they use to help the body adapt to the new kidney. It shut down his immune system and he never recovered. The doctors kinda effed up, they didnt test/check for allergies, he was 1 percent of the world's population that is allergic to the medicine.

I do hope you'll sue!

We're going to investigate, but PA has some really crazy laws that protect against malpractice. Since it was such a rare thing thats not easy to detect, we might not have a leg to stand on. =(

But what's the point of living in America if you can't sue someone when they wrong you??? Seriously, they should pay for killing you dad with their incompetence.

My condolances to you and the family i lost my father suddenly i saw him on the friday as i left home to stay the weekend with some friends came home monday night to be told he died that afternoon of a heart attack on the bed ,he had mowed our large lawns and  the two next door neighbours lawns came in side with out washing the mower ( unusual) laid out some clothes for a shower lay down and died, that was about four in the afternoon i had considered coming home on sunday but left it to the monday and thats when the what ifs come in to it,  also 12 months earlier my wife was run down and killed by a drunk driver at 8am waiting for her bus to uni , so i know your grief and whether its a young one or some one older they are all dear.

Oh my word, that's tragic, you have my condolances. I'm sorry for your loss of both your wife and your father.

I'm very sorry for your loss, I couldn't even imagine what it's like to lose someone so close for such a reason.

Well that's rough.  Sorry to hear that.

It's got to be espiecally rough on you given your general state of spirtual belief making the things people usually say largely meaningless... heck they probably are worse then that.

Really can't think of a thing outside of said convention that could make you feel better...  except possibly the theory that all time actually occurs at the same time, our own appearnce of linearity being an illusion construct of our minds to make sense of everything. 

It's ok, to be honest I find more comfort in knowing that there is no afterlife, I like the idea of life being a finite thing. But I don't mind it when people offer respect in the form of religious beliefs that aren't my own, I know they mean well and it's a nice gesture.



I'm sorry to hear about your loss dude!!! It's good to know your granddad lived a healthy 87 years and I'm sure he will dearly be missed.

I lost all four of my grandparents when I was younger as well. I'm not religious or spiritual either, so I had to get over their deaths in my own way. I hope your grandfather finds the peace that we are all looking so hard for.

I definitely understand, but see, the laws in America only protect the rich and the corporations. The average Joe has no power or say in the matter outside of a vote that is thrown into the trash anyway. Its the sad reality of it all. America - land of the free, as long as you abide by the rules of the rich.

I feel for you. Still, I bet suing is less counter-productive in your country. You should've seen the legal odyseey of a poor guy in my country after a doctor "accidentally" cut off his penis.
