As so many of the others have said what fantastic news but so sad that you had to go through what you did.

Sounds like you and your family will have a bright and happy future.

Please stay around I for one need your advice. I don't think it matters if you are debt free more that you have been in debt and understand how we all feel

I sued the Trust initally and whilst there was "discovery" going on and the putting together of my case, my solicitor - James made a complaint to the GMC - it turned out however taht this "doctor" was not practising in any UK hospitals and there was no trace of him - he was Nigeran so I presume he returned home once my case had begun. To this day they have not been able to find him and he has no qualiifications registered on him in the UK. He wasnt even supposed to operate at all, let alone unsupervised. Andy remembers the person who give the anthestic saying something about it but doesnt remeber much else. This person gave a statement in my favour. The day was frought, busy and to be honest it just seemed like they wanted to get rid of women labouring as they were severly understaffed. All I remember is labouring and then been told I had to have a CSection, I remember saying no, I wanted to push but he insisted - they then let my call my Mum.

I lost concisonuss on the HDU approx 1 and a half hours after the CS and have since found out that the midwife called the on-call registar who told her to give me 3 paracetamol and thats its - where was the registar when they were performing, in effect, an illegal CS - I hadnt signed any consent forms and neither had Andy - I dont remember anything until 4 days later when I awoke with various drips, drains and morphine thingys attached to me and I saw Sam for the first time - and to be brutully honest I didnt want him or beleive he was mine - I blamed him, stupidly for not coming out properly. I came home two weeks later and rejected him totally - for a year I missed the bathing, the story telling everything and I will never forgive myself for that no matter how many people tell me if its not my fault. After about 6 months of therpy I was advised to seek legal help to see if it would help me mentally ITMS. I want an apology just to frame and make myself believe it wasnt my fault - the money didn;t if I'm honest come into it but I must admit its very useful now though I would gladly swop it all for a apology. I still constanty ask Andy about that day and the days that follow but he remembers little and repeats himself until he is blue in the face. The only thing I can remember is being told I was going back to theatre as my womb wasnt sown up properly, layed naked on a trolley, drifting in and out and asking the midwife if I was going to die - she didnt answer me.

We tried again but had various miscarriages - Mollie was a lovely suprise/accident though I had a scan every week from 6 weeks and my OB was the loveliest man you could ever meet, he looked after me so carefully throughout my pregnancy and performed himself (which he wasnt supposed to do - too high up the ladder) the CS 3 weeks early so I couldn;t go into labour. I couldnt have been treated any better.

Anyway, Sams home from school so we are getting ready for his production and I might not be back on tonight so thank you all.

Don;t forget I'm not debt free until Feb so you cant get rid of me straight away :rotfl: :rotfl: :rotfl:

See you all soon xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx

Good God Weller, what appalling circumstances. Having previously worked in the NHS for a number of years I know of 'incidents' which would go down the same route as you through various situations but nothing ever as bad as your situation.

Enjoy the champagne, you really, really deserve it.

Many, many congratulations on the dfw-ness, and like everyone else I'm horrified at what you had to do to get there. I've had tears in my eyes as Im sat here reading this.

The release of all the debt stress is wonderful now, tho! I'm really, really pleased for you, Weller - and I hope Baileys and champagne mix very smoothly! Have a fantastic time tonight at Sam's school thing, so pleased for you.

PS - just realised the champagne's arriving tomorrow. Thats probably a good thing!

what is tragic, as with most medical negligence cases, the facts are readily available right from the start, but 8 years down the line you are only now getting some kind of resolution. this was obviously negligent. no consent form, surgeon not registered properly....that is all basic stuff. the trust did not have a leg to stand on.

I hope they tightened up their checking procedures.

wow weller ~ how would i miss this... thats amazing. Its a shame you had to go through what you did though and then you didnt get an appolgy but what a great turn around. I agree with everyone couldnt happen to a nicer person, just think of the relaxing xmas you will have now :j

Just a quick note to say this has really made my day, not the cicrumstances, but the outcome.

It's so nice to read, and like I said, it has really made my day. I woke up feeling like rubbish, still feel it, but this has really cheered me up. Enjoy your freedom Weller!
