UPPER FRUITLAND, N.M. — Davante Hogue is only 8 months old, but he has been through a lot in his short life. Born prematurely with his twin brother, Delante, Davante suffered a brain bleed, which has kept him in the hospital.
Mother Erica Hogue told KOB that in December, a nurse accidentally cut off Davante’s pinky toe while placing an IV in her infant son’s foot.
Circulation could not be restored and the toe was lost. The hospital has apologized for the incident, but Davante’s parents are not satisfied and are considering a lawsuit.
