  • oh my, i cant type mu hands are shaking so much

    you may not remember but ages ago i posted a thread about an offer i had from NHS trust - when i had sam (8 years ago and one month) the hospital cocked up they gave me a c-section when sams head was in the birth canal - i didnt need a csection at all and couldnt get him out when they did he had already gone into the watsits and then he was in SCBu for ages and I was unconscious and at midnight that same night they took my back to threatre as they hadnt sown the inner layers on my womb up properly so i had in effect 2 sections - i was on morphine for days and didnt see sam for 4 days and I rejected him as soon as i saw him and blamed him - stupidly- anyway i came home after 2 weeks and had serve PND - and was advised to see a solicitor nad i did ad after loads of investigating it was found that the man wh operated wasnt qulaified to perform surgery amd wasnt even registered properly on nhs - he was training.

    its been a long, long hard battle and they made me an offer ages ago which i refusewd on advice from mu solicitotr anuway they hae made another offer - solicitor just phoned and i have accpeted on advoce from him and it will mean totally debt freeness, mostly mortgage freeness (it isnt that big) and a new car - andy is so chuffeed i think he wants a new golf gti more than anything
  • Oh fantastic!!!!! That is great!!!!! Although it is a shame you had to go through all that to get the money in the first place.

    That's wonderful news about the settlement and getting rid of so much debt with it! Bleeding scary that you had to endure 2 operations, PND, rejection and 8 years worth of angst to get to this point!
