I think this is ridiculous. If she had the abortion originally b/c she could not shoulder the cost of raising a child, I would think she would give it up for adoption. There is no way that I can believe the cost of giving up a child for adoption is more expensive than raising one yourself. That doesn't make any sense.
Regarding the abortion, if it fails, it is possible to go back and have it done again. This is not unlike other procedures that may need to be repeated if the doctor screws up (plastic surgery comes to mind) or if there is still more tissue present (tumor resection comes to mind). And from my limited medical training, it is not standard to get a pregnancy test afterwards to check if there is still a pregnancy. Usually that is only done if there was a problem, OR if the patient suspects she is still pregnant!
If she's going to sue for a failed medical procedure, then fine. BUT for the cost of raising a child that she could have given away?? Unacceptable.
