Word people! Doctors are so stupid and arrogant that they can't diagnose pneumonia! Hell they miss so many simple things it's scary. I hope this will be a wake up call to the medical profession. I hate doctors they are the stupidest people in the world. Nurses are smarter and pb68ut up with so much sh*t from doctors. But when a young lady has to die because of medical stupidity then it has to stop. I hope we will all follow this case and really get to the bottom of why she died.

Yes it was s7ectupid how she died, but what are people so suprised at? Do you expect every doctor every passed medical school with straight A's? Not every doctor is that smart, few are. Those medical students with C's graduate as well. It's unfortunate but it will happen.

Unfortunately because of one of our presidents suing them wouldn't do any good. They passed a law that you can only sue them for a set amount which isn't even worth the trouble. I think it's somewhere in the neighborhood of $250,000

I don't think that's anything close to loosing a love once because of a doctor not doing their job right. But with her being a celebrity maybe something better will happen. -

You're an idiot, you know that? Pneumonia is easy to diagnose and easy to find and easy to cure in younger people. SHE WAS BARELY IN HER 30S! How many people do you know of in any advanced country that die of pneumonia at 30 when they have no other bad medical condition or surgery (of which she had neither)?
If it was something hard to diagnose, fine, but this is freaking pneumonia. The lawsuit limit is just another stupid pathetic dumb thing the idiot President Bush is responsible for (he needs to burn for all the crap he's caused and the trauma he's put this country through), and the doctors need to have FAR stricter standards. Doctors are gettign lazy in this country. That's why a lot of people are going to Canada and Europe nowadays for the big medical treatment, because our medical system flat-out SUCKS. -

Just because pneumonia is diagnosed, doesn't mean that it is completely treatable. There are many reasons why someones immune system isn't strong enough to fight a bacterial infection such as pneumonia, and once it progresses to a certain point, it isn't treatable. No body here knew her exact medical condition, so stop speculating.

You're so full of beep it ain't even funny. Our doctors know nothing compared to Canada's. I should know because I am one such person who went there for treatment because doctors in this country are incompetent. The waiting list crap for the most part is a myth. I've talked to Canadians many times and very few have complaints. When I went for my heart surgery, I got in within a month (it wasn't "right now emergency" surgery and therefore I didn't get top priority, which is fine by me seeing as I still without priority got in within a month). In fact, I've had several unacceptable waiting times in AMERICAN hospitals. America goes by first come first serve unless they're bleeding out; Canada seems to go more on priority, sickest first. So don't bash Canada's system when you don't know jack beep about it.
America's medical field is way behind the rest of the advanced countries, one because we let people slide through school, two because there is so little a5b4ccountability, three because of HMOs, and four because of this ignorant freaking President Bush who wants to cut off pretty much all the punishments doctors get for screwing up badly.
