MAJORITY OPINION
MARGARET GARNER MIRABAL, Senior Justice(Assigned).
This is a consolidated appeal. In cause number 14-05-00828-CV, appellants, Carmelita Escalante, M. D., E. Edmund Kim, M. D., Edgardo Rivera, M. D., and Franklin C. Wong, M.D. (the “doctors”), filed an interlocutory appeal from the trial court’s denial of their motion to dismiss appellees Donita Rowan and James Niese’s1 medical malpractice lawsuit against them. In cause number 14-06-00197-CV, Rowan and Niese appeal the trial court’s granting of the doctors’ motion for final summary judgment. We affirm the denial of the motion to dismiss and we reverse the summary judgment.
Factual and Procedural Background
In the fall of 2000, Rowan was diagnosed with Stage II metastatic breast cancer. At the time of Rowan’s initial diagnosis, Rowan’s breast cancer was regionally metastasized to her lymph nodes. Prior to seeking treatment at the University of Texas M.D. Anderson Cancer Center (“M.D.Anderson”), Rowan received treatment for her initial diagnosis of breast cancer, including surgery, chemotherapy, and radiation, at other medical facilities in Houston.
The defendant doctors are all employed by M.D. Anderson. In November 2001, Rowan became a patient of Dr. Rivera. In December 2001, she became a patient of Dr. Escalante. In September 2002, Dr. Kim interpreted a whole body bone scan of Rowan and in May of 2003, Dr. Wong interpreted a second whole body bone scan. Both Dr. Kim and Dr. Wong concluded there was no active bony metastasis present. In the late summer of 2003, the recurrence of Rowan’s cancer was diagnosed, this time in her liver. According to Dr. Rivera, patients who experience metastatic cancer with transfer to the liver or *723another visceral organ have a five-year survival rate of fifteen to twenty percent at the time of diagnosis and the disease is considered to be incurable with a median survival of two years.
In November 2004, Rowan and Niese filed suit against the doctors alleging the doctors were negligent as a result of their delay in diagnosing the recurrence of Rowan’s cancer. In May 2005, the doctors filed a motion to dismiss Rowan and Niese’s lawsuit pursuant to section 101.106(f) of the Texas Civil Practice and Remedies Code.2 The trial court denied the doctors’ motion. On August 4, 2005, the doctors appealed the trial court’s denial of their motion to dismiss pursuant to section 51.014(a)(5) of the Texas Civil Practice and Remedies Code.3
On October 17, 2005, the doctors filed a motion for summary judgment claiming that Rowan and Niese’s causes of action were barred as a matter of law because Texas does not recognize the loss-of-chance doctrine. On November 7, 2005, Rowan and Niese filed their summary judgment response with attached evidence as well as an amended petition. The trial court conducted an oral hearing on the doctors’ motion for summary judgment on November 14, 2005. Rowan and Niese both appeared at the hearing. Neither Rowan nor Niese objected to the summary judgment hearing on the basis of the stay in place as a result of the doctors’ interlocutory appeal of the trial court’s earlier denial of their motion to dismiss.4 The trial court granted the doctors’ motion for summary judgment on November 18, 2005. Rowan and Niese filed a motion for reconsideration of the summary judgment/motion for new trial (“motion for new trial”) in which they raised, for the first time, the issue of the stay in place as a result of the doctors’ interlocutory appeal. The trial court denied Rowan and Niese’s motion for new trial and this appeal followed.5
Discussion
In their appeal from the trial court’s final summary judgment, Rowan and *724Niese raise three issues. In their first issue, Rowan and Niese contend the trial court’s summary judgment is void because it was entered in violation of the stay in place as a result of the doctors’ interlocutory appeal of the trial court’s denial of their motion to dismiss. In their second issue, Rowan and Niese assert the trial court erred in granting the doctors’ motion for summary judgment as it was not addressed to their causes of action.
I. The Trial Court’s Summary Judgment is Not Void
A. The Standard of Review
In their first issue, Rowan and Niese assert the trial court’s summary judgment was issued in violation of the statutory stay created by section 51.014(b) of the Texas Civil Practices and Remedies Code and is therefore void. It is well settled in Texas that statutory interpretation presents a question of law subject to de novo review. Mitchell Energy Corp. v. Ashworth, 943 S.W.2d 436, 437 (Tex.1997). A trial court has no discretion when evaluating a question of law. See Huie v. DeShazo, 922 S.W.2d 920, 927 (Tex.1996); Walker v. Packer, 827 S.W.2d 833, 840 (Tex.1992).
B. Section 51.014(b) Creates a Mandatory Stay
In their response to Rowan and Niese’s first issue, the doctors appear to argue that there was no stay imposed on the trial court’s proceedings when the doctors filed their interlocutory appeal. We disagree, as the clear language of the statute imposes an automatic stay on all proceedings in the trial court as soon as an interlocutory appeal is filed. Tex. Civ. Prac. & Rem. Code Ann. § 51.014(b); Watts v. Rodriguez, 185 S.W.3d 931, 932 (Tex.App.-Austin 2006, no pet.) (per curiam).
C. The Trial Court Had Jurisdiction and Thus The Summary Judgment is Not Void
As we have determined there was an automatic stay in place once the doctors filed their interlocutory appeal, we now must decide if a summary judgment granted while that stay was in place is void. In this appeal, Rowan and Niese do not argue that the trial court’s summary judgment is voidable. Instead, they very specifically argue only that, because the trial court acted while the interlocutory appeal stay was in place, the trial court’s summary judgment is void.
Errors, other than a lack of jurisdiction, such as a court’s action contrary to a statute or statutory equivalent, merely render the judgment voidable so that it may be corrected through the ordinary appellate process or other proper procedures. Reiss v. Reiss, 118 S.W.3d 439, 443 (Tex.2003). There was no contention in the trial court or in this appeal that the trial court did not have jurisdiction, and we conclude that the section 51.014(b) stay does not deprive the trial court of jurisdiction. Therefore, the trial court’s summary judgment is not void.
II. Rowan and Niese Did Not Preserve Error as to Any Complaint that the Summary Judgment is Voidable Because of the Stay
Even if Rowan and Niese’s first issue could be construed as arguing the trial court’s summary judgment is voidable because it was entered in violation of the interlocutory stay, the result is the same because Rowan and Niese did not preserve error as to this complaint.
An interlocutory appeal of the denial of a motion to dismiss a lawsuit based on the assertion of immunity stays all proceedings in the trial court pending resolution of the appeal. Tex. Civ. Prac. & Rem.Code Ann. § 51.014(a)(5) & (b). However, the failure to object based on this stay waives any error that the trial *725court may have committed by failing to stay the proceedings during the pendency of the interlocutory appeal. Henry v. Flintrock Feeders, Ltd., No. 07-04-0224-CV, 2005 WL 1320121, at *1 (Tex.App.Amarillo June 1, 2005, no pet.) (mem.op.)(holding a procedural error must be preserved by timely action of the party bringing the error to the trial court’s attention).6 A summary judgment is a trial within the meaning of section 51.01403) of the Texas Civil Practice and Remedies Code. Lee-Hickman’s Investments v. Alpha Invesco Corp., 139 S.W.3d 698, 701 (Tex.App.-Corpus Christi 2004, no pet.). Here, Rowan and Niese did not object to the trial court hearing the doctors’ motion for summary judgment. In addition, Rowan and Niese filed amended discovery responses, a summary judgment response, and an amended petition prior to the hearing on the doctors’ motion. We hold Rowan and Niese waived them complaint concerning the interlocutory stay and removed any bar to the trial court hearing and ruling on the doctors’ motion for summary judgment.
Because we have determined the trial court’s summary judgment is not void, and that Rowan and Niese failed to preserve error as to any objection that the summary judgment is voidable based on the stay, we overrule Rowan and Niese’s first issue.
III. The Loss-of-Chance Doctrine
In their second issue, Rowan and Niese contend the trial court erred in granting the doctors’ motion for summary judgment as the motion was not addressed to their causes of action. We agree.
A. The Standard of Review
The movant for a traditional summary judgment has the burden to show there is no genuine issue of material fact and it is entitled to judgment as a matter of law. Nixon v. Mr. Prop. Mgmt. Co., 690 S.W.2d 546, 548 (Tex.1985). In determining whether there is a genuine fact issue precluding summary judgment, evidence favorable to the non-movant is taken as true and the reviewing court makes all reasonable inferences and resolves all doubts in the non-movant’s favor. Id. at 548-49. We review a trial court’s summary judgment de novo. Valence Operating Co. v. Dorsett, 164 S.W.3d 656, 661 (Tex.2005).
B. Sole Ground in Motion for Summary Judgment
In their second amended petition, Rowan and Niese alleged medical malpractice causes of action against the doctors. To recover on a medical malpractice claim, a plaintiff must establish the following essential elements: (1) a legally cognizable duty requiring the health care provider to conform to a certain standard of care or conduct; (2) a breach of that standard; (3) injury; and (4) a reasonably close causal connection between the breach of the standard and the injury suffered by the plaintiff. Dubose v. Worker’s Medical, P. A., 117 S.W.3d 916, 919 (Tex.App.-Houston [14th Dist.] 2003, no pet.). In their motion for summary judgment, the doctors asserted one ground — the plaintiffs are effectively seeking to recover for an alleged loss of chance of survival, but as a matter of law Texas does not allow such a recovery. In Kramer, the Texas Supreme Court held that Texas does not allow “recovery for lost chance of survival or cure in *726medical malpractice eases.” Kramer v. Lewisville Memorial Hosp., 858 S.W.2d 397, 398 (Tex.1993).
The Kramer court stated:
The effect of these [Texas] standards is to bar recovery where the defendant’s negligence deprived the tort victim of only a 50% or less chance of avoiding the ultimate harm. Hence, where preexisting illnesses or injuries have made a patient’s chance of avoiding the ultimate harm improbable even before the allegedly negligent conduct occurs — i.e., the patient would die or suffer impairment anyway — the application of these traditional causation principles would totally bar recovery, even if such negligence has deprived the patient of a chance of avoiding the harm.
Id. at 400 (citations omitted). In Kramer, the harm for which the plaintiffs sought to recover damages was the decedent’s “lost chance of survival.” Id. at 403. The plaintiffs pleaded and requested jury instructions based on an alleged legal injury of loss of chance of survival, and the Texas Supreme Court held that Texas does not recognize loss of chance of survival as a legal injury. Id. at 405-407.
The Texas Supreme Court did not hold, however, that once a person is diagnosed with a terminal illness, they no longer enjoy the protections of Texas tort law as to harms that they may suffer other than the ultimate harm, such as death and loss of chance of survival. The limitation on Kramer has been recognized by this court and by the Court of Appeals in Beaumont. See Hodgkins v. Bryan, 99 S.W.3d 669, 675 (TexApp.-Houston [14th Dist.] 2003, no pet.); Parrott v. Caskey, 873 S.W.2d 142, 150 (TexApp.-Beaumont 1994, no writ).
Although this court recognized the limitation on Kramer in the Hodgkins decision, this court affirmed the trial court’s summary judgment because the plaintiffs in Hodgkins did not allege any pre-death injuries other than a loss of chance of survival. Hodgkins, 99 S.W.3d at 675. This case is distinguishable from Hodg-kins, since Rowan and Niese alleged pre-death injuries other than loss of chance of survival. In her petition, Rowan alleged that the defendants negligently failed to diagnose her recurrence of cancer in September 2002 and May 2003 and that this negligence caused Rowan to undergo medical procedures and pay medical expenses that would have been unnecessary if defendants had not negligently failed to diagnose the recurrence of her cancer. Specifically, Rowan has sued for her enduring “otherwise unnecessary and additional medical procedures, otherwise unnecessary and additional medical expenses, loss of job and associated benefits ... physical pain and suffering, loss of consortium, mental anguish, emotional stress ... and loss of enjoyment of life.” Her husband sued to recover for “loss of consortium, mental anguish, [and] pecuniary loss” during his wife’s life, not as a result of her death or her lost chance of survival. Recovery for these damages is not prevented by Texas’s bar of recovery for lost chance of survival, which was the only ground asserted in defendants’ motion.
The doctors’ five-page traditional motion for summary judgment states as its sole ground that “it is clear that Plaintiffs’ cause of action against these Doctors arises out of what Plaintiffs perceive to be a delay in diagnosis of cancer recurrence which allegedly cost Donita Rowan a lost chance of cure or survival ... Plaintiffs are precluded from recovery because Texas does not permit lawsuits on a ‘loss of chance’ doctrine.” This ground is based on a false premise because plaintiffs are not effectively seeking recovery for an alleged loss of chance of cure or survival. Accordingly, the trial court erred in granting summary judgment. We sustain Rowan and Neise’s second issue.
*727IV. Motion to Dismiss
A. Jurisdiction
The defendant doctors filed a motion to dismiss pursuant to Section 101.106(f), which can provide a governmental employee with personal immunity if a lawsuit is filed against a governmental employee based on conduct within the general scope of the employee’s employment. Tex. Civ. Prac. & Rem.Code § 101.106(f). After the trial court denied the motion to dismiss, the doctors filed an interlocutory appeal. Rowan and Niese complain that we lack jurisdiction of this appeal.
This court has held that we have jurisdiction to consider an interlocutory appeal based on the trial court’s denial of a motion to dismiss pursuant to section 101.106(f). See Phillips v. Dafonte, 187 S.W.3d 669, 672-74 (Tex.App.-Houston[14th Dist.] 2006, no pet.). In Phillips, this court held that section 101.106 is an immunity statute, and therefore the doctors could appeal the denial of the motion to dismiss under section 51.014(a)(5), which authorizes an appeal from an interlocutory order of a trial court denying “a motion for summary judgment that is based on an assertion of immunity by an ... employee of the State or a political subdivision of the State.” Id. (citing Tex. Civ. Prac. & Rem. Code § 51.014(a)(5)). This court reasoned that although we must
strictly construe statutes allegedly authorizing interlocutory appeals, and we may not expand our jurisdiction beyond that conferred by the legislature ... the legislature did not intend to limit the application of section 51.014(a)(5) to a specific procedural vehicle; rather, the legislature was most interested in the substance or topic of the motion -i.e., that it declare the employee’s immunity because of his employment by the State and that it attack the court’s jurisdiction to hear the case.
Id. at 674. By alleging immunity as employees of the State, the doctors in Phillips entitled themselves to an interlocutory appeal, even though they may have used the “wrong” procedural vehicle to raise the immunity defense. Id. at 675. The same reasoning applies in the present case to give this court jurisdiction over this appeal of the trial court’s denial of the motion to dismiss.
B. Analysis
Section 101.106(f) provides:
If a suit is filed against an employee of a governmental unit based on conduct within the general scope of that employee’s employment and if it could have been brought under this chapter against the governmental unit, the suit is considered to be against the employee in the employee’s official capacity only. On the employee’s motion, the suit against the employee shall be dismissed unless the plaintiff files amended pleadings dismissing the employee and naming the governmental unit as defendant on or before the BOth day after the date the motion is filed.
Id. Thus, to be entitled to dismissal under section 101.106(f), a defendant must show that 1) the plaintiffs suit was based on conduct within the general scope of defendant’s employment with a governmental unit, and 2) the suit could have been brought under the Texas Tort Claims Act against the governmental unit. Id.-, Phillips, 187 S.W.3d at 675. As to the second prong of 101.106(f), the Texas Tort Claims Act waives sovereign immunity in three areas: (1) injury caused by an employee’s use of a motor-driven vehicle; (2) injury caused by a condition or use of tangible personal or real property; and (3) injury caused by a premise defect. Tex. Civ. Prac. & Rem.Code Ann. §§ 101.021-.022 (Vernon 2005); Hall, 232 S.W.3d at 928. On appeal, the doctors assert Rowan and *728Niese’s injuries were caused by the use or misuse of tangible personal property, and therefore plaintiffs’ suit could have been brought against M.D. Anderson under the Texas Tort Claims Act.
The doctors had the burden to show the trial court that the suit could have been brought under the Texas Tort Claims Act against M.D. Anderson. See Hall v. Provost, 232 S.W.3d 926, 929 (Tex. App.-Dallas 2007, no pet. h.); Franka v. Velasquez, 216 S.W.3d 409, 413 (Tex.App.San Antonio 2006, no pet.); Phillips, 187 S.W.3d at 676-77. Because the doctors failed to present the trial court with a sufficient record to satisfy their burden, they were not entitled to a dismissal on their motion.
The status of the pleadings at the time of the ruling is relevant to our analysis. At the time the doctors filed their motion to dismiss, and when the trial court ruled on it, Rowan and Niese’s live pleading was their original petition.7 We note that in their brief on appeal, the doctors make arguments relying on Rowan and Niese’s answers to interrogatories filed in August 2005; however, we are unable to consider such answers because they were not filed until after the trial court denied the motion to dismiss on July 19, 2005.8
In their original petition, Rowan and Niese named four distinct defendants, the four doctors in this case. As to each doctor, Rowan and Niese alleged the following acts or omissions constituted negligence:
a.failure to properly diagnose Rowan’s medical condition;
b. failure to properly treat Rowan’s medical condition;
c. failure to timely and appropriately recommend further diagnostic testing; and
d. failure to properly and timely recommend further treatment.
None of these alleged acts or omissions obviously involve a condition or use of tangible property. The only reference in the original petition to what could arguably be a “use of tangible personal property” is plaintiffs’ allegation that “one or more of the defendants” reviewed bone scans and misinterpreted them.9 It is impossible to tell from the original petition which of the defendant doctors may have reviewed the bone scans.
The doctors jointly filed a motion to dismiss seeking a dismissal of the suit as to all four doctors for the same reasons. There is no discussion in the motion about how a suit against M.D. Anderson could have been brought under the Tort Claims Act. The motion simply contains the con-clusory statement, “this is a case which could have been brought against the governmental unit, i.e., M.D. Anderson.” In support of the motion to dismiss, affidavits were filed by each doctor merely stating dates of employment by M.D. Anderson Cancer Center. The affidavits make no mention of Rowan and Niese’s negligence allegations. There was absolutely no showing before the trial court, as to any particular defendant, that the claims against that defendant could be brought against M.D. Anderson under the Texas Tort Claims Act.10 See Hall, 232 S.W.3d at *729928 (holding that general medical malpractice claims are not encompassed by the Texas Tort Claims Act’s limited waiver of sovereign immunity); see also Williams v. Nealon, 199 S.W.3d 462, 464 (Tex.App.Houston [1st Dist.] 2006, no pet.); Phillips, 187 S.W.3d at 676.
The trial court did not err in denying the motion to dismiss. Accordingly, we overrule the defendant doctors’ sole issue in the interlocutory appeal.
V. Conclusion
We affirm the denial of the motion to dismiss in cause number 14-05-00828-CV. We reverse the summary judgment and remand the case to the trial court in cause number 14-06-00197-CV.
