Which U.S. president died 79 days after being shot?

Sad that it was the doctors that actually finished him. Better medical standards today.

His doctors actually killed him. Digging inside him with dirty fingers and tools. He died of septicemia. If they had just left the bullet alone Garfield would have survived.

I lived in Garfield Hts. for over 50 years and got this wrong. Embarrassing.

PerkyLin, They didn't know. Sadly, medical errors continue to be a leading cause of death. Very sad state of affairs.

First of all, do no HARM!
