A man in Australia accused a hospital in Melbourne of causing him to develop a “psychotic illness” after he watched his wife undergo a cesarean section. This man is suing the hospital for 1 billion AUD which is roughly 643M USD. He claims that the hospital letting him see his wife get the cesarean section made him have a “psychotic illness”. In his claim, he said the hospital “encouraged” or “permitted” him to watch the procedure seeing his wife’s organs and blood caused him to have a psychotic injury. He opened the lawsuit several years after the procedure and the judge claimed it was an abuse of the process.
