A LOT OF STUFF STARTING

[BoroRedKen]

Starting to confuse about Carmen's passing.

She had a heart valve fitted 5 months ago. She got an infection from the valve.

6 weeks ago she attended a "normal" appt to have her dressing changed and 5 hours later she was in a coma in ICU.

5 weeks in hospital then allowed home.

4 days later she passed away.

I was not bothered but as time passes and the longer it takes for me to lay her to rest i am starting to have questions.

What happened between leaving home that in patient transport to 5 hours later? Did she suffer some sort of cardiac arrest that i was not told about?

Why is the coroner asking about her post operative care?

Was she well enough to be allowed home?

All i want to do is lay Carmen to rest and peace.
But all this stopping them "releasing" Carmen.

They can blame who they want. But why are they "punishing" me just to prove a point?

I would think of it as finding out if mistakes have been made so that action can be taken to prevent the same happening in the future.

The questions you are asking are the same as the ones the Coroner will ask and you deserve to have them answered

We live in an age where we have become used to having operations as a matter of routine almost but as they warn when you sign the forms there is a risk associated with the whole process.

Most of the time we come out the other side with an improvement but sadly for you and poor Carmen on this occasion the odds didnt work out for some reason

If I were you I would want that reason to be investigated and explained - I think you both deserve that

Hang on a bit longer mate - poor Carmen is in no pain and at peace now

I wanted to go after my wife's doctor who told her she was suffering from stress - she had lung cancer.She died 6 weeks after trying to get a sick note from the said doctor.

The doctor in question retired soon after the misdiagnosis. I made some inquires and was told I would be wasting my time. My sister who was working in the NHS advised me also that I wouldn't get anywhere as the blame culture tries to pass it on.

You feel bitter, want vengeance but my experience highlighted what a waste of time and effort this would be.

Ken, do what you feel is appropriate but be mindful getting answers that completely satisfy you is something else.

Thanks for that Nosmo.

I want no part of blame culture or compo culture. Its just not my "thing" and your story has just made me more conscious of i do want not to still be feeling like this in 2/3 years time while solicitors etc argue the toss.

Cheers mate

More than welcome, any advice about how to handle situations just shout. It can be done away from this platform.
