Lisa Shore died in October 1998 at the Hospital for Sick Children, at the age of 10.  In 2000, a coroner's inquest jury found that Lisa's death was a homicide.  In 2001, Lisa's two nurses were charged with criminal negligence causing death, but the charges were withdrawn in 2003.  In 2005, Lisa's nurses were found guilty of professional misconduct by their nursing licensing body. Immediately following this finding, the nurses returned to their jobs at the Hospital for Sick Children.

Lisa's mother, Sharon Shore, wrote a book about these events, describing how the hospital and its lawyers tried to cover up what had happened.    

As a result of the experiences described in her book, Sharon entered Osgoode Hall Law School in September 2002 as a mature student. She was called to the bar in September 2006 and is now practicing law at a Toronto insurance company.
