Memorial Hospital Will Pay $1 Million To Couple For Failing To Provide Spanish Consent Forms

At Memorial Hospital, $1 million was lost in translation.

It started in January 2007 when 2-month-old Luzdeestrella Flores-Rios was taken to Memorial to undergo a nephrectomy, a surgical procedure to remove a kidney.

According to court documents, the baby girl suffered complete kidney failure as a result of the surgery and is now on a transplant waiting list.
