They were suing Dr. Dennis Hayes for $5,000 because they claimed that Dr. Hayes did not insert instructions in seasick patch prescriptions which warn against use by children under the age of 12. Because of this, his then 8-year-old daughter Meghan suffered hallucinations on their Christmas cruise. In the end, they received $3,025.
