Could this be lawsuit worthy?

WASHINGTON (AP) - A Pennsylvania congressman and longtime friend of the late Rep. John Murtha says the congressman's large intestine was damaged during gallbladder surgery and the complications led him to be hospitalized.

Murtha died Monday at Virginia Hospital Center in Arlington, Va., where he was admitted on Jan. 31.

The gallbladder surgery was performed days earlier at the National Naval Medical Center in Bethesda, Md.

Rep. Bob Brady says an infection developed and that Murtha had a fever when he was admitted to the Virginia hospital.

Messages left with the Bethesda hospital were not immediately returned.

Brady calls Murtha his "buddy" and says he'll remember him forever.

that's so sad. I wonder if he had been admitted to a private hospital if he would still be alive.

For someone who had a senate health care plan, why would he have chosen to go there? I don't think I would gone to a VA hospital if I had my choice.

And, I think you may be right Chard... but we'll never know.

One of my friend's daughters had gall bladder surgery right around the same time he did. She was home the same day, no complications.

Who knows what condition he was in when he had the original surgery.
