wrongful death?

I found this interesting, in a sad way.

Catholic Hospital Says Fetuses Are Not People: Bereft Father In Malpractice Case Says Defense Is To 'Make Their Bottom Line'
Stodgill tries to understand the arguments hospital lawyers have made. He prints out the documents sent to him from the case, sits in a chair at home and reads them. His book of briefs is now two-and-a-half inches thick, far fatter than the phone book in his canyonlands community. He said the defense arguments it contains – including that his twin boys, who were seven months in the womb, don’t qualify as people — defy common sense and what he knows to be true. Still, he figures that what he thinks he is owed is of little consequence in a world where the giant wheels of corporate health care spin.

Personhood issues aside, what hospital would not try to save 7 month fetuses by performing a C-section? That alone should be worth a malpractice suit, but to have a Catholic hospital arguing that two 7 month fetuses are not human....isn't that against everything they have been arguing FOR?

There was an article in the Post yesterday saying bishops didn't know about the defense in this case and are taking a look at it.

I suspect this is a case of lawyers mucking up the waters.
The Catholic Church cannot have it both ways.
A doctor failed to answer a page?
Why couldn't 28 wk old unborn babies be saved?

I tried googling the first sentence and came up with nothing...

I get the same result with the first sentence. I do not know where the quote actually came from.

I apologize for not providing the link.......caught doing what I chastise others for. Oops. I plead guilty, but it was late.

I have added it to the OP.

It happens. You get busy, side tracked or the phone rings and you just hit submit. No big deal.
It is an interesting story.

Thanks Bob, for the link to the article that actually has the quoted text.
