What is the name of your state (only U.S. law)? Nebraska
I am new to this forum and have been wondering about something that happened to us not quite two years ago for quite some time. I was five weeks pregnant with my daughter who just turned one. I went to the emergency room for excruciating pain. The doctor examined me and after a while ended up telling me that my pregnancy was not viable, and that the egg had implanted in my ovary. He was going to give me a medicine that is actually intended for cancer patients in order to abort. However, the place where the medicine was kept was closed for the weekend (it was late Friday), so he said to come back immediately on Monday. Well, I got a call from my doctor on Monday saying that his decision was hasty. She did an ultrasound and pinpointed the baby, and now our daughter is healthy and happy. We were very angry at the fact that I was about to receive an injection of that stuff because of his very quick decision. Is this grounds to take legal action, or not since I didn't actually receive the medicine? Thanks so much.
