My mother passed away from Gallbladder Cancer which spread to Stage 4 Metastatic Liver Cancer back in October. All the attorney's I have consulted with said that Negligence was invoved in the part of the doctor and hospital where my mother was cared for. But Causation comes up. What does this mean? Can I still sue the doctor and hospital?
For those low life losers who are telling me shame on me for suing the people that tried to help my mother. Let 's get one thing straight. They misdiagnosed her. And your answers are stupid and unkind. Therefore I am reporting you losers for abuse!

I'm so sorry for your loss.
This is a question that may be better answered in a legal section? I suspect that what the lawyers are talking about is whether the misdiagnosis CAUSED the advancement of the cancer (ie: whether you can prove that the doc's missing the diagnosis is what ultimately caused your mother's passing.)
Without knowing the intimate details of your mom's case, it would really be inappropriate to weigh in on what may or may not be medically negligent, etc. Docs are human and we sometimes screw up... while I'm sure your mom's docs' intentions were only the best, the fact is that errors in judgement and negligence DO sometimes happen.
Either way, your anger and frustration are completely understandable. I hope however the situation resolves that you're able to find some peace. Again... very sorry for your loss.

I am very, very sorry for your loss. I will not get into opinions on wheather your choice to sue is right or wrong but i will answer your question. " In medical terms, what is causation?"
" Multible Causation"
The relating of causes to the effects they produce. Causes are termed necessary when they must always precede an effect and sufficient when they initiate or produce an effect. Any of several factors may be associated with the potential disease causation or outcome, including predisposing factors, enabling factors, precipitating factors, reinforcing factors, and risk factors.
