An Ordinary Man

While German bombs were falling on London people didn’t worry too much when hearing Hitler’s doodlebugs, the dreaded V1 flying bomb. But when the noise stopped then they were worried because they knew that the rocket was about to drop – on them!

David, hanging in a basket inside an air raid shelter, was oblivious to all of this for he was just a baby.

Growing up in West London he spoke with a cockney accent even though he wasn’t a true cockney. He went to a good school and later to an art college but not being impressed with the lifestyle of an artist or of an interior designer he left and got an ordinary job, His sporting interests included rowing with a club on the nearby River Thames and gaining instruction in the sport of judo but at the age of 18 he was looking for something more, an adventure.

He joined up for a three-year stint in a colonial police force in Southern Rhodesia and never looked back. He lost his cockney accent, learned a lot about police work and the native Rhodesians, both black and white, and his three-year stint turned into over ten.

Anatomy of a Wrongful Death Lawsuit

In Anatomy of a Wrongful Death Lawsuit, journey alongside a determined man seeking justice against a healthcare provider responsible for his wife’s tragic end. Stemming from a heartbreaking fall in May 2017, this riveting account spans a relentless four-year legal battle, culminating in a pivotal wrongful death lawsuit settlement in August 2021.

Delving deep into Florida’s Sovereign Immunity Statutes, the narrative unravels the intricacies of a legal system designed to discourage victims by limiting potential damages. The story casts a glaring spotlight on a flawed healthcare system, where a Medicare facility, under the umbrella of these statutes, can prioritize profit over patient safety. Revelations like Medicare’s astonishing $55,000 bill for treatments and the audacious theft of a valuable wedding ring from an elderly patient underscore the gravity of systemic failures.

Although the initial medical malpractice case seemed promising, its evolution into a wrongful death suit drastically shifted the scales, placing a daunting burden of proof on the bereaved husband. While the eventual settlement wasn’t about financial gain, the core aim was to ensure acknowledgment of a wrongful death lawsuit. However, due to the secrecy of mediation, such misdeeds might remain cloaked, depriving the public of crucial awareness.

This poignant exploration is more than just a personal tale of resilience; it’s a deep dive into the complexities and challenges of confronting a seemingly impenetrable legal fortress.
