$75 Million Awarded To Brain Dead British Girl.

Maisha Najeeb
Because of mistake by doctors at the Great Ormond Street Hospital in the UK by accidentally injecting a 10 years old girl's brain with glue. This is truly a sad story, although they will get the money but according to her father - "Her life is ruined. All her dreams have been broken." Read the rest of the story as reported by Metro.co.uk.
Maisha Najeeb was ten when she was admitted to the children's clinic in London for treatment for a rare condition that meant her arteries and veins were tangled. However, medics mixed up the syringes being used to inject a harmless dye to monitor blood flow around the brain with a glue aimed at blocking bleeds from her blood vessels, leaving the girl from Ilford, Essex, with permanent and 'utterly devastating' brain damage.

Great Ormond Street Hospital for Children NHS Foundation Trust acknowledged 'shortcomings' in Maisha's care, the 'consequences of which have been tragic and devastating for Maisha and her family'.
