Thomas Shaknovsky botched the surgery of William Bryan, 70, who died on the operating table
According to Shaknovksy’s deposition, after removing Bryan’s liver, the surgeon instructed a nurse to label the organ as a “spleen” – and he also identified it as a spleen in Bryan’s postoperative notes. Shaknovsky later said he had been “mentally compromised” at the time of Bryan’s death, explaining that he was “devastated, demoralized, crying over his passing, felt that I failed him”.
obviously, but justice is often the closest thing to closure anyone who’s lost a loved one can hope for. if she feels the doctor made mistakes which led to her husband’s death, then why wouldn’t she want to hold him accountable? your take is really ‘she just needs to move on’?
