Posted on Aug 16, 2010 5:00pm PDT
In California, a cheerleader has been awarded $5.5 million in a medical malpractice settlement where she suffered permanent brain damage after an accident three years ago. After she toppled to the ground in a cheerleading pyramid, she was diagnosed with a relatively small subdural hematoma and was released from the hospital. However, the hematoma increased in size but was not constantly observed during her hospital stay. As a result, she is requiring a large amount of medical care in the future.
