A wife begged for an ambulance to arrive at her home for two hours as she watched her husband die in front of her of a heart attack.
Lesley Weekley, 73, from Barry, had planned to take Rob, her husband of 43 years, into hospital the next morning after he complained of sporadic discomfort similar to indigestion.
However he woke her in the night and when she checked he was clammy and freezing cold, so called 999 at around 2am.
