A mother whose infant son died last year after a medication mix-up at Saskatoon's Royal University Hospital is breaking her silence about a recent out-of-court settlement.

Bonnie Washam's six-week-old, Andrew, died two weeks after being accidentally given insulin in his intravenous line instead of the blood-clot prevention drug heparin. The baby was among four babies in the August 2010 incident that were given the wrong drug while in neonatal care.
