Pregnant Nottingham woman stuck in Greek hospital 'fearing for baby'

A pregnant Nottingham woman who is stuck in a hospital in Greece says she is fearing for the safety of her unborn baby. Expectant mum Thurza Blagg, from Sherwood was rushed to hospital when she began bleeding whilst on holiday in Rhodes.

The 32-year-old, who is 28 weeks pregnant, is desperate to return home where she feels she can give birth safely. However, Ms Blagg says her insurance company AXA missed a chance to repatriate her, resulting instead in an urgent transfer to Alexandra hospital in Athens.

She said due to the language barrier and receiving little support, she does not understand what is happening with her baby. "I don't feel very safe, I don't feel like I've got a clear birth plan," she said.
