Day Posted March 8, 2010 Share Posted March 8, 2010 A man of 22 died in agony of dehydration after three days in a leading teaching hospital. Kane Gorny was so desperate for a drink that he rang police to beg for their help. They arrived on the ward only to be told by doctors that everything was under control. The next day his mother Rita Cronin found him delirious and he died within hours. She said nurses had failed to give him vital drugs which controlled fluid levels in his body. 'He was totally dependent on the nurses to help him and they totally betrayed him.' A coroner has such grave concerns about the case that it has been referred to police. Sources say they are investigating the possibility of a corporate manslaughter charge against St George's Hospital in Tooting, South London. Mr Gorny, from Balham, worked for Waitrose and had been a keen footballer and runner until he was diagnosed with a brain tumour the year before his death.

Day Posted March 8, 2010 Author Share Posted March 8, 2010 Makes you think is hospital the best place to go anymore if your ill? you put your life more at risk by going there, surely that's not right. Pisses me off that all we see in the media is campaigns to donate money to all these other countries that are in need, 'kin ell this country is in need. We've got soldiers out in Afghanistan without the right equipment needed for battle. We've got nurses in hospitals that are either a) over worked or b) don't give a *****. The money we have got is being used on houses and benefit money for immigrants who came across in the back of a lorry. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Perky1106 Posted March 8, 2010 Share Posted March 8, 2010 Shocking and tragic. In my opinion whoever is responsible for this neglect should be behind bars, even if it's a number of people who will inevitably pass the buck perpetually. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
