The family of former U.S. Rep. Eddie Bernice Johnson alleges that medical negligence at a Dallas rehabilitation facility led to her death from an infection. After back surgery, Johnson was reportedly left in her own feces, leading to a severe infection in her spine. The family's attorney has announced the intention to file a lawsuit against Baylor Scott & White Health System and Baylor Scott & White Institute for Rehabilitation. Despite the facility's statement of commitment to working with the family, the case is distressing as Johnson had hoped to recover from the complications. She served in the House for 30 years and was a prominent figure in Congress.
