My father died as a result of lack of treatment for illness at the VA.

Submitted 2008-02-22

Defendant: Veteran Medical Malpractice

The VA made my father leave the hospital (made him sign a contract that I have) because they said he was not sick. The next day he was in the ICU at a non Va hospital with a lung infection (he was a COPD patient) among other things. A few days later his heart stopped and he had to be put on a ventilator. Two weeks later he had recovered enough to be transported back to the VA where he contracted pneumonia and developed bed sores ( also he had MRSA) but still was released in stable condition to a nursing home. The next day he was back in the ICU and three days later he died.
