I am a quad, c3 , incomplete,8years post.I sustained an injury on my head that had left a compression on my cervical spine.But I was not paralyzedexcept for weaknesses on my arms and legs. I was fully independent and was active.Anyway I was referred to saudiarabia for further treatment(from Ethiopia ). The operated on me but I became quadriplegic as a result of the doctors mistake. This was proved by an independent doctor. Infact the hospital has kept me under it's care , inpatient for three years.
I have sued the hospital before going back home(five years ago).I have submitted all the evidences--disability report,video(pre and post operation). The regional medicolegal committee where the case has been suspending for five years could not decide.Indeed the committee has asked us to agree and the hospital wanted to pay something very minimal(about five thousand dollars) and close the case.I know this Is not a compensation for a 100% disability.
What legal procedures and actions are required at this point? Anybody who knows about the legal systems in Saudi Arabia?any knowledge of free legal advice and service(international) that can help on this matter?
Thanks for the assistanse.
