  • Isn’t it about her chance to get one though? “There was no process for a second review or appeal.”

    You have a window were you can’t drink any alcohol for biological safety reasons, but in this case the mere rule of not drinking alcohol was enforced. This makes it a punishment instead of some biological requirement.

    Some time ago I had to go under general anesthesia to have some teeth pulled. Local anesthesia didn’t work. I wasn’t allowed to eat for 24 hours. But I was so hungry that I ate just enough to not have stomach pain anymore. In the hospital I said I ate a tiny bit, and they said that it wouldn’t be much of a problem if I only ate a bit. Compared to the OP story, I wasn’t punished because I was still within the safe window.

    Why should somebody get punished by a hospital? They should be neutral. “Oh you drank alcohol? You’ll have to come back later because of safety reason”. They shouldn’t be the judge. Giving them that power is just stupid.
