I had a small tumor in my intestines,the size of a walnut. The doctor who operated on me,cut right through my main artery.I went through all the blood in my body 3times.He had to get a vascular surgeon, to repair the damage he had done.Due to loss of blood , All but 3 feet of my intestines died, normal people have 21 feet.He told my wife I was full of cancer, and he had to remove almost all of my intestines, and he told her I would most likely not live through the night.
As you can see, I am Alive.I had to have a tube put in my chest and live on TPN, every night I had to hook up to a pump, that fed me.My wife of 40 years, who was my child sweet heart, since she was 13 and I was 14. Was fighting cancer at the time, she fought it for 12 years. I believe the worrying and strain, brought the cancer back. 5 months later she died.I blame the doctor for her death also.I found out through my primary Doctor what really happened. He had lied to cover up his mistakes.Doctors are human and make mistakes, but because of his lying, I sued him. I won the law suit, for 1.5 million dollars. You might think that's a lot of money, but not when it comes to your health. I have to move my bowels any where's from 15 to 20 times a day. I went from 230 lbs to 140lbs.
I got tired of living like I was, so i had them take me off the TPN. they said i could not live without it.well 7 years have passed and i am still here.
I have to take opium to slow down the Diarrhea. So know I am hooked on opium. I am a man who never even smoked pot, not even once, now I am a dam drug attic. This Doctor is suppose to be the head doctor at a big Hospital. well he butchered me. And God only knows how many more.Every word of this story is true, and I would give back every penny to be normal again.what they say is true, money is not everything, your health, God and family is everything.
All this money and I cant spend a penny on the woman I loved all my life.
I am not a good writer, but this is my true story, told the best I could.

I am so sorry for everything you've been thru! My minister's wife has also been affected by sub par surgery. While undergoing brain surgery (can't recall the exact reason off hand) they made a mistake that led to a stroke the pretty much left her parallized on her left side. Now with lots of hard work (and the grace of god) she's regained motion/controll of all but her left hand.
Luckily in her case the doctors admitted the error. I've found many, if not most, tend to be up front if problems arise during a procedure. I wish there was more that could be done to hold these surgens more accountable. Malpractice fees don't seem like enough. Perhaps filling complaints with the medical board/AMA too but nothing can truely bring you the justice you deserve.

this is one of the saddest stories I have ever read, i am really sorry. I would like to think that most doctors dont lie though, obviously yours did and he/she is a disgrace. I myself am in medical school and can only hope my generation of doctors our taught to be more honest and respectful if nothing else

Your story is so sad. I am so very sorry for you and your loss. I live a similar situation with a tottaly diferent rare and degenaritive disease and drs lie to me all the time but I have no longer the strenght to fight for justice. I am glad you sued him because for these heartless people only thing it matter is money. I remember this Dr who wouldn't treat me because I didn't have the cash to pay her and she told me that looking in my eyes. Drs are human but most of them only things that matters is science, status and money. Sorry for my english. I hope you will find the will to find strenght and happiness again with what you have because you are still alive.

Oh, you poor, poor soul. I feel for you. When I waw six months old, I got asthma. This stupid, irresponsible, lame excuse for a doctor didn't treat my pneumonia correctly. He gave me some over-the-counter medicinde. As a result, I developed asthma. I went on to suffer it's symptoms until the age of twelve. And all the nights my parents stayed up, all the money spent on medications to keep me alive, sometimes I wonder why I was put on this earth. Sometimes I feel like I should have died so someone worthy could take my place. I'm so sorry you lost your wife, and for your condition. I would like to say that God will be there for you, but I don't believe in his power anymore. All I can do is wish you the best, and let you know that that guy will pay for what he did in hell.
