Oregon hospital accused of sending dead baby to Seattle
A family is suing Salem Health Hospital after hospital staff in Oregon instructed them to transport their nearly 9-month-old son's body home in their private vehicle following his sudden death in the emergency room. The parents, from Seattle, filed a $10 million lawsuit, alleging the hospital pressured them to take their child's body without proper guidance or assistance, leading to emotional distress. The family had requested respectful transportation arrangements, but the hospital reportedly offered little support, resulting in the father driving four hours with the child's body in the backseat amid ongoing grief.
