I’m sorry to tell you all that my son Garry passed away the police came and told me he still had me down as his next of kin. He was 56. I always called myself a mum wait.

Last night, I was rushed to hospital with pains in my chest going through my back and down my left arm.I waited 11 hours in three different ambulances they came into the ambulance and took my blood.That was the last I saw of any medical person from the hospital.

I Thank the paramedics for their care,I got so angry that I have returned home without seeing anybody.What is our national health come to?.

take great care Liz

Oh, Liz. All the love in the world to you. Your poor son. And you, that's absolute torture. Is anyone with you today?

So sorry to hear about the loss of your son, that must be very hard indeed.Your trip to hospital sounds challenging, hope your chest pain has gone now - are you going to your GP? x

How sad I feel for you, dear Liz . .

If you feel talking more about your son might be therapeutic please feel free to do so ; I'm so sorry to hear of your loss💐

And the hospital chaos must have been a dreadful, additional strain on your emotions. I keep asking myself why Starmer & co aren't treating the NHS failings as a national emergency.

Like PurpleOverlord, I hope you have people around you, and that the awful symptoms have abated. Paramedics are highly trained medics of course, but last night was a far cry from specialist care.

Have you spoken with your GP about last night's scary issues ?

Hold tight to Shelley and please keep in touch m'love . . Cat Xx
