A five-hour wait in a hospital emergency room is now the subject of a lawsuit that charges Methodist Hospital in Sacramento and various ER workers with medical malpractice and negligence in delaying treatment for a baby, the Sacramento Bee reports. Ryan Jeffers and Leah Vang brought their daughter Malyia in on Nov. 29 with a fever, discolored skin and weakness. As it turns out, Streptococcus A had spread to her blood and organs. Ultimately parts of four limbs had to be amputated. "There is nothing we can do to bring back Malyia's amputated hands and feet," said the family's lawyer, Moseley Collins III. "However, we hope that her lawsuit will convince emergency rooms in Sacramento to do a better job treating our seriously ill children and make health care in our city safer for all of us." Article
