It has been nearly two months since Joan Rivers walked into the Yorkville Endoscopy Clinic for a routine procedure and never recovered. While the comedienne was 81 at the time of her death, she was thought to be in good shape, making her death an untimely one. Unfortunately, Melissa Rivers opted not to have an autopsy done on her mother, so even after Joan's death was ruled a complication connected to the surgery, that is not actually telling Melissa what really happened to her mother. In order to get to the bottom of things, Melissa has reportedly decided to sue the Yorkville clinic and the doctors who cared for Joan.
Apparently, Melissa believes the clinic and the New York Department of Health know what went wrong, and they are avoiding providing any details because of malpractice implications. If Melissa sues them, then doctors and other staff will have to sit for a deposition and explain exactly why her mother stopped breathing.
As of now, without an autopsy having been done, there is speculation that a slice in or nick to Joan's throat caused her vocal cords to seize, which then caused her to stop breathing, but nothing can be solidly confirmed.
There has been talk of Melissa filing a malpractice suit almost immediately after it became clear her mother was not going to survive.
Can you blame her for taking action if she decides to do so? She probably needs answers about what happened so she can then begin to let go and heal, don't you think? How many mistakes do you think the Yorkville clinic made while Joan was sedated with Propofol and under their supervision? Comment below.
