Melissa Rivers, the daughter of the late Joan Rivers filed lawsuit against the clinic where the TV personality had a medical emergency. Everyone was shocked by her untimely death as Joan Rivers was very healthy before her visit to the clinic. It was a sad day for the whole industry.
A report says that Joan Rivers went to the Yorkville Endoscopy clinic to have her throat checked. However, her visit also became her last. The younger Rivers believed that her mother was disrespected. Some say that the doctors were able to take selfies with Joan Rivers while she was unconscious.
According to a source, the doctors who did a procedure to Joan Rivers were not able to follow the correct protocol. They have given her huge amount of Propofol without even checking the patient's weight. The amount was said to be two times more than the allowed dosage that should be administered to Rivers.
The International Business Times reported that Joan Rivers left a lot of legacy to her daughter. This includes cash, her jewelries and the fashion line. But even with the riches, her life couldn't be brought back and no amount can ever replace that.
Joan Rivers made millions of people laugh and at her death, she also made them cry. She made a mark in the industry as the first woman who carried a late night show. Even if she was criticized by some because of her satirical humor, it is undeniable that her wittiness proved that she was intelligent in her own way.
If the allegations are real, then it is really hard to trust doctors and other health care professionals. Indeed, there should be stricter rules and regulations to avoid such incidents. It was an untimely death for someone who has contributed a lot in the industry.
