A friend passed away today. Lung cancer. Just 42. Heavy smoker and weed taker. She leaves behind 5 kids, youngest being 14, and a 2 year old granddaughter. Medical negligence played a part.

Only found out about 3-4 months ago. She'd been in pain for some time but people, including the doctors and her family, called her a hypochondriac because she had mental health issues. It was the wife who urged her to keep pushing the doctors to take her seriously and eventually one of them arranged for her to have a scan. She had developed stage 4 by the time they found it. We urged her to begin legal action against the doctor but she wasn't in the mood. Looks like her kids are going to.
