Beeston dad's unanswered questions after wife's death during childbirth

A Nottinghamshire widower has said he still has unanswered questions after his 'absolutely lovely' wife tragically died during childbirth. Bernadette Horsey, of Beeston, went into a cardiac arrest and died shortly after giving birth to her son, Tim, at the Royal Derby Hospital on January 19.

"Bernadette did actually see Tim for all of a few seconds, at which point she then collapsed," said Aaron Horsey as he recalled the details of the "devastating" day. Aged just 31, Bernadette would not see her baby boy again.

Aaron, 31, still has unanswered questions from that day, raising concerns with care and an investigation into her case. University Hospitals of Derby and Burton expressed its condolences to the family and said it had carried out an investigation.
