A woman sued her mother's doctor for allowing her to be born and won millions in damages.
A woman took her mother's doctor to court for allowing her to give birth to the child and won millions in damages. The 20-year-old woman, Evie Toombes, who suffers from spina bifida -- a spinal defect -- and spends her days attached to tubes, claimed that had her mother been properly advised, she would not have been born.
She claimed that if her mother's doctor, Philip Mitchell, had advised her mother to take follic acid supplements to minimise the risk of the spinal defect affecting the baby, she would have delayed her pregnancy and Evie would not have been born.

Leon Panetta said Iran war was not an unexpected risk. He pointed out that for years, US security officials have known Iran could disrupt global oil supplies by blocking the Strait of Hormuz. According to him, this was a well-known danger, but one that appears to have been overlooked in the current conflict.
