Description

In February of 1982, plaintiff-appellant, Julia Davis, had a modified radical mastectomy of her left breast. She then underwent cancer radiation therapy at defendant-respondent, Intermountain Cancer Clinic (ICC), located at defendant-respondent, Bannock Regional Medical Center (BRMC), in Pocatello. This radiation therapy occurred between February 23, 1982 and April 7, 1982, and was given under the supervision of defendant-respondent, Dr. Mark F. Moran. During that treatment, Davis alleges that her spinal cord was either exposed to an excessive dose of radiation or otherwise irradiated from an overlap of the dual-beam radiation field. However, nothing evidenced the excessive spinal cord irradiation, and following the therapy Davis was able to perform normal daily activities. She had no pain or loss of function in her legs or lower back at that time. In early 1983, Davis began to experience spasms in her left leg and pain in her feet. In April of 1983, she was hospitalized and underwent tests at BRMC. However, none of her doctors were able to determine the source or cause of her symptoms. In May of 1983, Davis spent an additional eight days being tested at the University of Utah Medical Center to determine the cause of her problems. At that time, the doctors feared that the cancer had spread to her spinal cord. In June of 1983, Davis received a letter from Dr. Richard Baringer, one of the doctors connected with Davis's testing at the University of Utah. He explained that he had a suspicion that Davis's difficulties were related to her prior radiation treatment, and that he had asked his staff to seek further information on this possibility with a focus upon the doses of radiation and the exact way in which they were administered. That inquiry initiated by Dr. Baringer eventually lead to the discovery of the overlapping radiation fields.
