The opinion

McCLENDON, J.,

concurring.

|¶1 respectfully concur.

Although plaintiffs presented scant evidence to establish, by a preponderance of the evidence, that defendant’s conduct caused Mr. Hebert to suffer a lost chance of survival, given Dr. Roddy’s testimony that if someone had paid attention to Mr. Hebert’s respiratory rate of 24 at 5:00 a.m., “we might have prevented this patient’s death,” I must concur with the result reached by the majority.
