A hospital in Glenbrook, Illinois and five of its doctors are being sued in a medical malpractice case by a victim’s family after the death of their family member.
A 56-year-old man went to the hospital after developing an infection in his hip, but after he underwent surgery for the infection, he suffered from kidney failure. The kidney failure caused the man to undergo dialysis, but the man’s body began to accumulate liquid.
The suit is claiming that the doctors at the hospital failed to watch over the man adequately which caused his body to accumulate to much liquid. The suit claims that the doctors noticed the build up and continued to give him blood without dialysis and which caused him to go into cardiac arrest.

According to a report from the U.S Department of Agriculture’s National Agriculture Safety Database, farm vehicles are mostly involved in rear-end collisions because it can be hard to determine the speed of a slow moving vehicle.
Also, it can be difficult to slow down in time when your car is traveling at a speed of 55 mph and a farm vehicle ahead of you is traveling at 15 mph. Drivers are encouraged to apply their brakes as if they are approaching a stop light when a farm vehicle is on the road in front of the driver.
