Missing baby-Not a person???

I have been out of work since June because of illness, I get around ok but could not function as a nurse any more. Worked for 36 yrs, and was good at what I did. Worked in psych, med surg, ICU< CCU, pediatrics, and Labor and Delivery. Recently, I read in the paper about a baby which the newspaper said was thrown out from the hospital. How could this be? What kind of person could have done this? This was a totally formed infant that weighed 5 lbs but had died. There are mixed details. Some say baby was stillborn, some say baby lived for 20 minutes. I was totally shocked because the paper made a statement that a stillborn is not a person. Well, in all my years of nursing I never heard this! This baby had a brain, cells, arms, legs, fingers, toes, everything. This indeed is a person to me! It is just very sad!
He had to have a death certificate and a name. Now the poor mom cant bury this little baby because no one knows where his lifeless little body is!
How could someone go into a morgue, remove something in the freezer and just discard it? Something is very very wrong here. Hospital people make alot of mistakes. It is unfortunate to say it, because I am a nurse, but in my 36 yrs I have never had a problem with anything big. When my husband had surgery, the nurse was running pain med without a pump.When I had my last surgery, the blood I was to get, was clotted up and discarded. One nurse in one hospital gave me a double dose of blood pressure pills. What the heck is going on these days?? Some things are quietly pushed under the rugs, but in this baby case, something has to be done. This is inexcuseable and devastating! What is this mother supposed to do now? Sure, she will sue the hospital and get lots of cash, and that will definately not bring the baby back. We need to find out who did this and why they would do it. You just dont go into a morgue and open a freezer and throw a little wrapped bundle in the garbage! A stillborn is a PERSON.!!!!
