MISSOURI: E. coli lawsuit filed after infant gets sick - (Ozarksfirst.com)
July 31, 2008 – 7:06 pmThe Pedersen family is suing Soni Copeland and The Herb Depot and Organic Market in Monett. The family says their son got E.coli from some raw milk bought at that market.
KOLR/KSFX sat down with Angela Pedersen to hear what she had to say about the lawsuit. Angela didn’t want us to show her son, who’s still recovering from a long hospital stay. She says he just went through a battle for his life.
“It was a living hell. I wouldn’t wish that upon anyone,” says Pedersen.
It’s hard for Pedersen to look back on the last few months. She almost lost her son Larry, who was not even a year old, to E-Coli.
“I don’t know how many days I would look at my son and I didn’t know if he was going to take another breath,” says Pedersen.
