A jury has awarded $15 million to a breast cancer victim in a medical malpractice lawsuit. According to reports, the matter involved the woman having a lump in her breast but being told by the doctor that everything was fine. The doctor allegedly failed to see abnormalities on mammography and failed to do a simple test of the area where she had felt a lump. As a result, the woman’s cancer spread to her lymph nodes and bones.
