I misspoke Bonnie, didn't mean a cure but knowledge of how some birth
defects can be prevented by good medical care.  This includes prenatal
as well as the actual birth process.  I have a good friend who had her
youngest daughter severly damaged by a forceps delivery nine years ago.
The little girl has undergone several surgeries so far and the parents
elected not to sue for some reason.  I've often thought that their
insurance company could have forced them to sue but it hasn't happened.
Someone also told me that with an injured child, suit may be filed up to
eightenn years old.
