"'Yeah, now the mother's all upset. Wants more tissues. What've we got?'
'I'd have to check. Probably the usual. All major organs.'
Marty said, "Any chance the material got displaced? So we couldn't find it?'
'Might take months."
'Or years. Or never.'
'That'd be a shame.'"(90)
This passage is a conversation between two doctors who are basically trying to avoid a lawsuit, and are therefore pretending like they can't find certain tissues belonging to a dead man whose family is attempting to sue the hospital where the body is. This depicts the corruptness of the world we live in today, and how there is so much data that it can be easily hidden or "overlooked". I am personally freaked out by this passage because it makes me feel unsafe in a hospital, where people are supposed to be saved and feel like they are in good hands. There are clearly many mishaps in hospitals that are probably just coverups. Will the authorities really believe the stories that workers in hospitals tell? Will they look farther into these issues? Are there problems like this at MY hospitals?
