I hope she wins a bundle.
depends. If the hospital acted in its best capacity and she does not remember what happened because of the illness, why should she win anything?
If you come into a hospital normal...deliver a baby normally, and then, within 24 hours catch a flesh eating disease, I would confidentally assume it was the hospital's fault. That's why they need to see who else had that disease. It's a natural request and they should get it. They don't need to know names, they just need to know if others had it in that hospital at the same time she was admitted.
