Young Scots dad died after cardiac arrest shortly before 30th birthday

A young Scots dad died after suffering a cardiac arrest just months before his 30th birthday. Joseph McGowan, from Post Glasgow, passed away after being rushed to the Inverclyde Royal Hospital and transferred to the Intensive Care Unit at the Royal Alexandra Hospital in Paisley.

The 29-year-old's heartbroken family have vowed they will "never forget" the team of hospital staff who cared for him in his final days. As reported by Glasgow Live, his mum, AnneMarie, said she and dad, John Ross, endured days of worry as ICU staff assessed his condition.

However, after a week, the couple received the devastating news that their son would not survive and that from then on he would receive end-of-life care. Joseph's loved ones were able to spend 11 days with him before he died in January this year.
