The patient-care technician offered a tearful apology, which they accepted, Scott Spiegel said. "But it's not enough," he added.

Of course it's not when you think one serving of breast milk is worth $30,000.

Probably not, but remember, breast milk is a vector for transmission of such diseases as HIV-AIDS. When babies are born to such mothers, special medication is required to prevent the mother-to-baby transmission. It’s all fine and dandy in this case, but when a serious injury happens, who will be accountable?

Now if a hospital doesn’t have a fool-proof method of matching mothers with their babies, they deserve to be sued. It would be better for such an establishment to be inoculated from committing future blunders with this benign case, than to dust it under the carpet until a serious accident forces them to do the same.

I’ve always hated the idea of separating new-born babies from their mothers, in hospitals. I fail to understand the utility of this practice.

You can get two gallons here in Vegas for $5.00
