Belfast woman's fear for dad's health after surgery cancellation

The daughter of a West Belfast man with multiple medical conditions says she feared for his health after a planned procedure was cancelled just 24 hours before he was due to have it.

Lisa Rogan's father George, from Poleglass, was due to have surgery on an abdominal aortic aneurysm (AAA) on November 15. After calling to arrange a bed the day before, George soon learned that he would not be attending for surgery he had "mentally prepared for".

Speaking to Belfast Live, Lisa said it had caused much distress to their family when they were told his procedure was cancelled.
