## Opinion text

Tom Glaze, Justice, concurring. I join the majority in its reversal of this cause, but I must disagree with the majority holding that Brown’s death was the result of a “medical injury.” The evidence here simply does not support such a holding. Some of my reasons for disagreeing with the majority on this point are already stated in the dissenting opinion found in Sexton v. St. Paul Fire & Marine Insurance Co., 275 Ark. 361, 364 , 631 S.W.2d 270, 272 (1982). Therefore, I merely adopt the dissenting views expressed in Sexton as supporting my concurrence in this case.
Hickman, J., joins in this concurrence.
