Mother of Child Affected by Medical Malpractice Speaks Out After Landmark Judgment, Demands Full Accountability
A family has been awarded a significant judgment in a medical malpractice case, but the mother of the affected child, Azaylee, emphasizes that the fight for full accountability from the hospital continues. In a recent video, Azaylee's mother, who wishes to remain anonymous for privacy reasons, shared her perspective on the widely reported case. "The article told part of our story, but the reality is so much harder," she stated, highlighting the ongoing challenges faced by her daughter, who developed epilepsy and other medical disabilities following a 36-hour labor. The mother, who became a parent at 19, revealed that her life plans were altered by the incident but expressed profound gratitude for Azaylee's presence. She criticized the healthcare system, asserting, "Private hospitals put profit over patients!" and called for the hospital to take responsibility, as they currently have the option to refuse payment despite the judgment. The mother also extended support to other parents dealing with postpartum struggles or children with medical disabilities, assuring them, "You're not alone in your struggles." She plans to use social media platforms to share more details and videos to ensure their full story is heard and to advocate for broader accountability within the healthcare industry.
