A series of medical mishaps lead to gangrene of the penis

http://www.courthousenews.com/2009/06/1 ... enter_.htm

PORTLAND, Ore. (CN) - A man says he had to have his penis removed after a series of medical events that started when he went to the doctor with a cut finger.

While treating the finger, Daniel Wymbs claims his doctor discovered a mild hernia. Wymbs underwent elective hernia surgery, which soon became infected, according to the complaint. Nearly a month after the surgery, doctors at Providence Portland Medical Center diagnosed Wymbs with severe penile infection and Fournier's Gangrene. Six days later, Wymbs says his entire penis had become "fully necrotic," necessitating an "almost complete" removal.

Wymbs sued Providence, Dr. John Ragsdale and Dr. Gilbert Klemann for $3.5 million.

He is represented in Multnomah County Court by Sheldon Aronson.

I agree that he should receive some compensation for the loss of his penis but $3.5 million seems excessive. :-\

Given the circumstances, I would say it is minimal at best. Maybe 10 million or more. It's not like he wanted to lose it. Sitting on a jury I would be very sympathetic

He needs the money to buy a very expensive and flashy set of wheels of course. ;)

I believe it's to compensate for the lack of actual fucking.

My guess is that after taxes and legal fees, he might be getting even less net.
