My 61 year old Father-in-Law had extensive liposuction as recommended by his physician. Less than a week after the liposuction was done he was rushed to the hospital after falling to the floor and becoming unresponsive. He was taken to the ER and then to the ICU where doctors discovered an infection that was spreading throughout his entire body. He died at the hospital 6 days after the liposuction was performed. The preliminary autopsy found that an "unnecessary "hole" was found in his back and the doctors said it was directly caused by the plastic surgeon.
Other information: My father-in-law was a diabetic (he was not on insulin)
He did not have health insurance or life insurance. He leaves behind a wife with Parkinson's Disease, and two teenagers (and my husband).
Any thoughts on how we should proceed?
Thanks in advance!
