The incidence of infections, sometimes deadly, in American hospitals is rising and I would be interested if somone could explain why.The variety of nasty bugs that populate a hospital is much greater than you would find most anywhere else. I would almost rather lick a Bronx sidewalk than walk around barefoot in a hospital.
It sounds like Mrs. Buckley died because she was in that hospital.
Partly, but sepsis usually only sets in after a person's immune system is already greatly weakened. For an older woman like Mrs. Buckley the surgery just turned out to be too much.
I guess people just have to start insisting that the hospital staff wash their hands and don a mask when they enter your room.
Good hygene helps, but you carry bacteria with you everywhere you go.

My 108-year-old grandmother fell out of a hospital bed, broke her hip, and that ended a wonderful lady beloved by all. What made us angry was that it happened on a Friday and she had to wait all weekend in pain until the doctors came in on Monday morning to operate on her.
What has happened to the tradition of service and caring in the medical community?

Really, what is septic poisoning? Sepsis = infection. They opened her leg, viruses or bacteria entered her system during surgery and it killed her. Assuming the brief report is correct. Other commenters suggest more complex causation.

Prayers up for the Buckley family. They have all done so much for the conservative movement, I can not imagine what our side of the aisle would have been like without them. Well said. It is amazing what they have accomplished.
