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negligence causing death, but the charges were withdrawn in 2003.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.
