The family of a 5'5, 300 lb man who fell off an operating table is suing the hospital after he died from the accident. This will not go well for the hospital because a sedated man waiting for surgery, no matter how big he is, needs to be protected. That being said, the fatter our population gets (and it is getting fatter) the more of these problems are going to happen. Like it or not, we now need to supersize our hospitals or else they will all be sued.
