...to determine the course of events.

I made the miracle proclamation...more on the fact that the timeline appears to give at a minimum about 30 minutes before treatment even started, at which point (unless the water was very cold) most doctors would start from the point of "its probably too late".

Not excusing doctors, I just found it a telling sign of the current mindset that the 'family representative' didn't say anything about how hopeful they were, or glad they were that their child seemed to be recovering...simply going right to "we're deciding if we should sue".

And having a pool and small children...I am probably less prone to forgive the negligence that put the child there in the first place. So I have, perhaps, a slight distortion in my POV where that is concerned.
