On one one hand, we have a completely insane person trying to do something idiotic. On the other hand, we have an industry that's supposed to protect society, not harm and destroy it. I'll side with the insane person on this. In spite of doing something completely insane, the medical establishment should have refused to do the operation. Instead, it choose to be irresponsible and dangerous. While I'm not particularly sympathetic to the victim, it didn't know what it was getting into. The medical establishment should have prevented the life altering procedure, but it choose to make money over being ethical. Therefore, it needs to pay handsomely. I don't believe the victim should get millions from the malfeasance, but should get hundreds of thousands of dollars. The hospital that agreed to do the surgery should pay millions in fines to help other victims. We know none of us can trust a hospital or a doctor to do the right thing. We've seen this pattern over and over.
