Is this elder abuse?  You be the judge!

                 David Vance, 67, a patient of Dr. Charles C. Snow at The Medical Center of Central Georgia, costing Medicare and Blue Cross $178,487.48, not including doctor’s charges for only 3 weeks!

David was healthy until being administered a lethal overdose of acetaminophen from too many Percocets, 3 days in a row by Dr. Thomas C. Woodyard at Coliseum Northside Hospital.  David’s biliruben climbed from a "normal 0.5" to "5.4" as of 5 weeks later!  After being sent home without treatment, he was then all of a sudden placed on Zocor by another local doctor!  David died of cirrhosis a year and a half later.  It is a shame that the doctors who must have casually done this have so far gotten away with it.
