Just WTF.

The siblings, their parents and four other brothers and a sister have filed a lawsuit against the UTMC, which this week denied all allegations of medical negligence.
That takes balls. Â You blatantly toss out a dude's kidney and say you did nothing wrong?

UTMC admits a nurse threw away the man's kidney, but nevertheless is asking a state court to dismiss a lawsuit filed by the family.
"They are admitting they threw the kidney away, but they are not admitting substandard medical care," Fudacz family lawyer James E. Arnold told ABCNews.com.
Brass balls.

But Dr. Jeffrey Gold, chancellor and executive vice president for health affairs at University of Toledo Medical Center, said in a prepared statement today that the hospital is "sympathetic and sorry" about the accident.
"The university continues to express the sorrow that we feel that this unfortunate incident occurred. We apologize sincerely. We have done our best to provide many remedies to help those affected move forward."
Gold said UTMC's renal transplant program had performed more than 1,700 renal transplants over more than 40 years with a better than 98 percent success rate.
Yeah, Jeff, kidney transplants are tricky things. Â 98% isn't bad there. Â Keeping a kidney on ice is a considerably simple matter. Â There is no excuse for the success for that ever to get below 100%.
