I'm saying the doctor was at fault for not properly diagnosing her condition, which led to her cardiac arrest. She had hypokalemia (potassium imbalance) which was a result of her bulimia.
which means she never told him what she was doing. She as much or more at fault for her condition that anyone else.
Again... what I'm saying is that the Dr. had failed to diagnose the hypokalemia (potassium imbalance).
-> The hypokalemia wasn't diagnosed. Terri had cardiac arrest. The doctor was sued for malpractice.
The end result was that the doctor was found at fault to the tune of +$1 million. :?
I'm not disagreeing with you, clearly there wre quite a few factors that cause her to get the way she was.
