Has Your Son Or Daughter Been Robbed Of A Normal Life?
Few moments in life are more joyful than the birth of a child. Bringing a new human being into the world is an experience that simply can’t be translated into words.
For an unfortunate few, however, this experience turns to tragedy. Medical errors can have heartbreaking, lifelong consequences in the pregnancy and childbirth context. A mistake might leave your precious newborn with lifelong health struggles — or, worse, it might rob your baby of that life altogether.
