Cancer patient discharged herself from hospital due to overcrowding and died four days later, inquest hears

A 67-year-old cancer patient discharged herself from hospital due to overcrowding and died four days later, an inquest heard.

Speaking after an inquest at Dublin Coroner’s Court, family members said they stayed with their mother all night in the Mater Hospital emergency department and were unaware her condition was so serious."If we had known they wanted to do more research, we would’ve made her stay. A post-mortem report showed that the woman’s cancer was not active but she had chronic inflammation of the liver due to the accumulation of medications.
