A judge awards 5.7 million to the parents of Oliver, a boy who became tetraplegic due to errors during childbirth

A Madrid court has awarded €5.7 million to the parents of Oliver, a child left tetraplegic due to medical negligence during childbirth. Key evidence from a nurse revealed excessive use of forceps, leading to severe cervical injuries. The ruling highlighted three critical errors by the medical team, including a lack of foresight regarding potential complications and failure to conduct necessary tests. The family expressed gratitude towards the nurse who provided crucial testimony, contrasting with the hospital's initial denial of responsibility. Oliver now requires ongoing care and therapy, and his family has relocated to Toledo for better access to medical facilities. Despite challenges, they report positive progress in his schooling and social integration.
