Hospital apologizes after nurse cuts infant's pinky finger off (local6)
A Central Florida hospital on Tuesday issued an apology after a nurse cut an
infant's pinky finger off.
The 3-month-old girl's mother, Veronica Olguin, is scheduled to appear at a
news conference on Wednesday after hiring Orlando-based The Pendas Law Firm to
represent her.
Olguin said a nurse at Heart of Florida Regional Medical Center in Polk County
cut off her daughter's finger with a pair of scissors.
"An unfortunate accident occurred at our hospital while an experienced nurse
was removing bandages from the tip of a child's finger," the hospital said in
a statement. "We rushed the child to a hand specialist, but unfortunately the
tip of the finger could not be reattached. We deeply regret the harm to the
child and want to express our compassion and concern for her and her family."
The Pendas Law Firm said the hospital has not taken any responsibility for the
incident.
"We reached out right away to the child's family and their attorney, but have
not been able to reach a mutually agreeable resolution. Again, we want to
reiterate our sincere concern for the child and her family," the hospital
said.

Please help my daughter with this math word problem!?
When the bill comes, Kora wants to leave 15% of the bill as a tip. Micah wants to leave 77¢ more, making the tip 20% of the bill. Calculate the amount of the original bill without tip. Express answer correct to the nearest cent.
let x = amount of original bill
"15% of the bill as a tip":
0.15x
"Micah wants to leave 77¢ more, making the tip 20% of the bill":
0.15x + 0.77 = 0.20x
0.15x + 0.77 = 0.20x
0.20x - 0.15x = 0.77
0.05x = 0.77
x = 0.77/0.05 = 15.4
amount of original bill without tip: $15.40
