Just damn : (
Prayers sent up for your friends uncle, and your friends. You wouldn't happen to know the medication used to sedate him? Back in '93, my mom had a masectomy, and complained that the nursing staff was screaming at her. They obviously gave her too much anesthetic, but her mind went south soon after that.
Sedation shouldn't shut down your organs. It's too bad they couldn't have gotten a blood sample, but like the rest of us, they trust the hospital : (
Thanks. We will find out more soon.
The family will try to get as much info on what happened as they can. For one, some incision was made and got infected immediately with one of the hospital reenforced bacteria and they packed him with antibiotics. That along with the sedation must have started the cascade, chain reaction building after the sedation. Details are still fuzzy and the family is so devastated they can hardly focus. One thing they have concluded though is that the fatal procedures were unnecessary. They may try to get the details of the initial event and present it to another doctor hypothetically for a second opinion.
