Leanne Leary had an undiagnosed deep vein thrombosis which led to her having a heart attack on the operating table

A mum-of-three tragically died after travelling to Turkey for £2,000 weight loss surgery she 'so desperately wanted and needed' an inquest heard.

She didn't inform her parents of her plans to undergo the £2,000 operation for fear they would try to talk her out of it, nor did she discuss it with her GP. Ms Leary's final text messages to her dad Paul Dermody as she was about to go into surgery on the morning of Saturday, July 1, were read out in court.Mr Dermody told the court: "I said I fully support what you are doing, but I want to know where you are every step of the way before and after surgery.

Her parents caught the first flight to Istanbul, where they were met by an interpreter. But on their arrival at the hospital they were given the news that Ms Leary had died.
