A family have waited a year for answers after a mum died when she fell down a few stairs at home. Lisa Price, 38, from Rossendale suffered a severe brain swelling that pressed down on her spinal cord and caused her to pass away.
After keeping a dignified silence for over a year her family got some answers into the circumstances surrounding her death at an inquest last week at Accrington Town Hall, reports Lancs Live.
The inquest heard from Home Office pathologist Dr Jamie Robinson who said that these type of injuries can occur even after falling from just one step, and that the "the odds are stacked against survival."
