The VA failed to administer a simple antibiotic to this veteran.
He was being treated for leukemia and developed low white blood cell count and then a severe infection.
The VA oncologist told his wife by phone to give him an over the counter anti diarreal medication-
within days he was dead.
He was 45 years old.
