So sorry Pat - the death of a loved one is bad enough, but this goes beyond belief, particularly as the hospital seems not to want to apologise.

I hope that you can get closure soon and just have good memories of your Dad.

Thanks for letting us share this, and the warning that we cannot always trust those who are supposed to know what is in our best interests. There is a need for hypervigilance in any hospital stay. I know that if any of mine are in I will be questioning what is going on. I'd rather be thought a pain in the arse than let something slide by. It's just a shame that people have to die to teach us this lesson.
