Seems like a high percentage of players that transferred here from ISU have histories of medical issues.

My wife has a severely damaged eye due to a botched medical procedure at the Hershey medical center.  She was visiting her family in the Harrisburg area in 2015 when she noticed a change in her vision.  On the advice of family members, she went to the Hershey Medical center and waited to be seen.  When she was finally seen, the diagnosis was a partial retinal detachment.  The attending physician attempted to reattach her retina with a laser but was unsuccessful due to the blood which accumulated in her eye during the wait.  The attending physician then attempted a cryogenic procedure and then sent my wife to her mother's home for a week. My wife has stated that she experienced extreme pain during the procedures.  During the week, my wife followed the directions from the surgeon.

When my wife returned to the Hershey Medical Center a week later, she was informed that she now had a full detachment of the retina.  We were able to get her back to Huntsville, Alabama within a day and an emergency surgery was performed.  She followed the doctor's orders precisely for a month and went to multiple appointments. After a month or so, she was informed that the surgery had failed and another surgery was performed shortly thereafter.  After the 2nd surgery, the surgeon spook with me in the waiting room and informed me that he was able to save her eye but that her eye was severely traumatized.  I believe he said her eye fell-apart or disintegrated when he attempted to attach her retina.  Over the next several months, she underwent 2 additional surgeries.

It has been 11 years since the botched medical procedure.  My wife has limited use of her eye and cannot drive at night.  She has distorted vision, limited peripheral vision and her pupil does not react to light.  She sees a specialist monthly and uses multiple eye-drops daily. 

My wife has never received anything from the Hershey Medical Center.  It seems highly probable that the cryogenic procedure was done improperly and caused the damage.  However, my wife was in a depressed mental state for more than 2 years following the botched medical procedure and she did not know if the injury was permanent. Therefore, she did not contact a lawyer.   When it became obvious that she would always have a significantly impaired eye, she contacted a lawyer and was told that she had waited too long to file a lawsuit.    

Imagine that - you deal with the mental anguish of a botched medical procedure and then when it becomes obvious that you are not going to regain use of one of your eyes, you get told that the law doesn't protect you because you didn't file a lawsuit within an arbitrary time period. And yet some other joker can file a lawsuit because he feels disrespected.    

I'm sorry your and your wife went through that, but if a lawyer told you the 2 years were up therefore you could not file... that may have been bad advice. In PA, it's two years from the procedure OR two years from when you realized, or should have realized, something happened in a surgery that led to long term harm.

If after all those surgeries, one of the later surgeons implied or told you her eye had been damaged by earlier procedures... the 2 years would start from that point, not from when the botched surgery happened. Or you could have argued it was unknown if it would be permanent until later.

That said, as I have some surgeons in my family and surgery is never 100% What they call "routine" is anything but, and can have negative outcomes when doing everything right. Unfortunately surgery is as much art as science. It sucks to say that yes, but believe me they definitely wrestle with doing everything right, yet having a bad outcome. It can wear on them significantly.

Ferentz is a great coach, but honestly his age and tenure at Iowa make that hire almost impossible
