posted (July 17, 2013)
On Monday, 7News showed you the family from San Antonio Toledo who lost their premature baby at the KHMH.

Lawrence Bol told us that his baby girl, Lorena, was in great health when he left her and a few hours later, when he and his wife returned their child was dead.

He told us that he was shocked by it, and found the explanation from the doctor inadequate. Well, a post-mortem was conducted by Dr. Hugh Sanchez on Lorena – who they have listed as Elbira Ack. Dr. Sanchez certified that she died as a result of a latent congenital abnormality of the heart – which basically means that she was born with a bad heart.

According to the KHMH, this abnormality was too severe, and it claimed her life. Their position is that they couldn't do anything further for her.
