Taking a Stand (2006)
"Taking a Stand" is a true story about Janet, a sixteen-year-old girl who trusted her orthopedic surgeons through ten knee surgeries. She believed her doctors when they told her that her poor surgical outcome was due to the way God made her. Conquering the seeming impossible, she rose from her wheelchair, faced the parallel bars, and met her challenge?walking!
Fifteen years later one of her doctors confessed, divulging the truth regarding the cause of her condition and the need for her repeated surgeries. Her doctors had made a gross mistake during the original surgery. Janet's additional surgeries were due to medical malpractice, concealment, and fraud. Janet and her parents had been lied to and an entire year of her medical records had been removed from her file. Additional medical records had been purged and Janet's x-rays were mysteriously missing to cover the truth.
What do you do when you discover your life has been forever changed and you must now live with the consequences of someone else's mistakes and sin? How do you quench the anger that blazes? To some, this anger is looked upon as positive?energy to fuel the injured in his efforts for justice rather than an inferno that chars one's soul. The world's view of living with a disability or loss of a loved one due to medical negligence or "the fault of another" tends to be perceived as a life-long sentence rather than a life that expects God's blessings in bringing good out of evil.
Janet wrestled with the decision whether or not to sue her doctors. Through many trips to the courthouse, she uncovered alarming facts that put her community at risk. She discovered that, combined, her doctors had been sued more than fifty times, yet they continued to practice medicine. Janet determined to take her case to trial. She vowed to do everything she could to prevent her doctors from hurting another person.
But just how easy is it to sue a doctor? Though lawyers are in abundance, who would jump at the chance to represent a client with a fifteen-year Statute of Limitations problem? Who would want to take on a case entangled in a web of lies and sort out the truth of Janet's medical care and ten surgeries? Who could even represent this case with the knowledge that evidence was missing, destroyed and purged? What law firm would gamble the odds and finance such an endeavor? "Sorry," Janet was told over and over again, "our firm can't help you." Finally her determination and persistence won out. A law firm 800 miles away, known for the defense of doctors, agreed to take her case. They agreed to take the risk. They now represented?a plaintiff.
"Taking a Stand" documents one woman's struggle to hold tight to the promises of God. Through the twists and turns of the legal system, she and her family experienced one jolt after another, fighting an uphill battle through the superior, appellate, and federal courts.
Assembly Bill AB2571, a bill that was born out of her misfortunes, passed both the floor of the Assembly and the Senate with not one "no" vote. With unanimous support, August 31, 2000 AB 2571 was signed into law! No longer can doctors in California conceal their mistakes be shielded from investigation by a statute of limitation. From defeat to victory?God was faithful!
"Taking a Stand" is for every person who has a serious illness or injury, anyone who has been victimized and betrayed, all who've met physical challenges, battled the legal system, or simply felt like giving up. Taking a Stand will encourage you not to toss in the towel, but to rise above the odds and take a stand for what you believe in!

As a senior in high school, Janet lost the use of her legs following surgery. On the night of her tenth surgery, she met Marty, who became her cheerleader and was alongside her as she learned to walk again. Eventually, he became her husband. Janet and Marty have been married for over twenty years and have three children. Janet's knee problems reoccurred when she was thirty-two. She was horrified to learn she had been a victim of medical negligence, fraud and concealment. Her additional surgeries had been attempts to correct the mistakes. Janet has since become a voice for others who have suffered medical fraud. Assembly Bill 2571, borne out of her misfortunes, unanimously passed both the California Assembly and the Senate and was signed into state law on August 31, 2000.
