I lost my mum 2.5 years ago, today the inquest finally concluded. I’m wide awake at 5:27 in the morning as I can’t stop thinking. The coroner concluded that Mum died from natural causes however opportunities were missed by the hospital that, if acted on, could’ve saved her life. I’m devastated, heartbroken and lost. I knew something was wrong when she died, to have this confirmed and see it in writing has broken my heart. It felt so unfair to lose her when she was just 56 years old, now to find out she could still be here is agony. I miss her so completely.
That is a long time to keep you hanging on, i bet this feels like opening more questions than closure. Passing on my best wishes to you. What will you do next?
My dad passed end of September and I’m finding things tough, especially this time of year
I thought I’d come to the conclusion that the inquest wouldn’t give me what I needed, but I still think I was looking for something. For now everything will be put on the back burner until the new year. Our solicitor thinks we have a case to sue the hospital, it just feels too much to deal with right now though.
I feel you. We are coming into our third Christmas without her, and it still feels as raw as it did in 2021. Holidays are always difficult. I’m sorry to hear about your Dad, I know it’s a cliche but time helps, it doesn’t make grief stop but I feel you learn to live your life around it. Take care x
