Said he had a short time to live, this guy went out on a spendfest and lost everything he had... apart from his life. He even arranged his own funeral, that must have been something to tell the kids about!

Had he gotten a second opinion, or if he waited a short while, a week or so, for another checkup, he wouldn't be nearly homeless.

What a stupid reason for a lawsuit.

Misdiagnoses happen. And he's the one who chose to pull the "eat, drink, and be merry" crap. If he hadn't done that, the misdiagnosis wouldn't have ended badly for him at all.

For the same reason you don't insure a pack of cigars just before you smoke them.

I would've understood how he thought he had so little time left to live and then decided to just make the best of it however possible.

However, the stupid thing he did was actually SUE the NHS, which I don't even need to explain why it is a stupid move. It's definitely not going to go far at all. He should've just started to find out the first step in trying to reverse the financial problem he put himself into.

So, he sues them because he spent all his money, when he could've let his wife pay with his left over money for the funeral?

Just commit suicide.

Except, you know, that's obvious.

And doesn't disprove my point.

Yes it does, Grant. He thought he was going to die so he made all these arrangements and spent what he could to make what remains of his life the very best. I understand that he's pissed off that they made a mistake. And I think they should pay for their mistake. It's people's lives they're dealing with. You don't get that forgiveness.

What a hilarious idiot. Spending a load of money he knows he doesn't have to spend. Thought he'd get away with it. Hoho. What a delicious punishment - more life to live!

The thing is, they might have caused him some trouble, like the mental anxiety he would have had from thinking he was going to die soon, but he was the one who did the big spending thing, on his own initiative. The NHS can't be blamed for his lack of temperance. The way he see it, it's his own damn fault that he's in this predicament, for that reason.

I bet he has his eye on the big cash the medical industry has....

Hey, Grant.

What would you do if you were told you were going to die soon?

Just sit there?
