The family of a dad who has Parkinson's disease were left horrified after finding out that he had died for two minutes - but that no-one at the hospital had told them. Colin Dawson’s daughters only found out about the incident in May after seeing 'RIP' written on his medical notes.
Pam Le Ballois said the shocking discovery is just one of many issues her family have faced during her dad's time at Countess of Chester Hospital. The 73-year-old was first admitted after falling ill in a restaurant back in April.
Now, his daughter believes this could be his last Christmas due to the decline in her father's heath. Mrs Le Ballios says it has been near impossible to get any kind of meaningful response from the 'faceless organisation', and that the last time they were even in contact with the family was four weeks ago.
