Hi all,
You may have heard of the mother who has been asked to repay over half the compensation payment she received to care for her son, who had spina bifida which the hospital did not spot during her pregnancy, after his death.
As a disabled person who has heard of several people getting similar payments, I've never heard of anyone having to repay any such money in this situation.
I don't think she should have to repay the money. I've written on the case at my website: samedifference1.com/2013/05/16/mother-asked-to-repay-compensation-after-son-with-spina-bifida-dies/ ?
This is not advertising for my site- I simply want opinions from people who hopefully have no personal connection to disability.
After writing the linked post, I read a Daily Mail article saying that the compensation was fought for because the mother was not given the choice to terminate her pregnancy.
