How come doctors didn't treat my fathers case seriously? In a month he gained 30lbs had hard time breathing, his diabetes shot up quite high all of a sudden and had phemona(spelled wrong) Went to the hospital drained liquid from abdomen, had hard time with breathing put a oxegen mask on him to help him breath. controlled diabetes and then sent him home a week later. still complained about breathing a water gain, they told him to double then triple his water pills. A week from home we had to rush him to the hospital the second time. He was complained he was so tired went unconcious they performed surgery to take away more water from his heart. Aparently test showed no water origionally then they took more tests and it showed the water. He didn't make it through the surgery his heart stoped. After only 2 hours in the hosptial he passed away. Why did they send him home? I wonder if he would of been saved if they monitered him longer. Apparently his heart showed many scar tissues.

I'm so sorry for your loss. You should sue the hospital. That's a very sad story, and it makes me sick how bad some of our doctors are. You're not in Las Vegas, are you? We have the worst doctors and hospitals. It's really sickening. Your Dad is in a better place. Very sincerely, Lynn
