Mother wins gastric band legal case - National - Littlehampton Gazette

OMG what is it with the Littlehampton Gazette and weight loss surgery? How bizarre. (see thread earlier this week by cah ching) Glad this lady won without going to high court.

I hope it's more accurate than the one put up earlier this week!

I think this story may open up a floodgate of such appeals. Hmmmm... quite an ethical debate on the horizon methinks.

Interesting read, fair play to her. I bet lots will follow suit now.

Good luck to her!

After funding the band herself and having success, the NHS should support her for the bypass.

Yes lots of ins and outs.
To fund a case like this £100 grand unless you qualify for legal help!.

that's quite interesting - it certainly sets a new precedent..wonder how many more test cases will be heard.
