Sandie Armstrong told the inquiry into the Queen Elizabeth Hospital her mother's rapid decline had a 'massive effect' on her length of life and left her family without a 'proper chance to say goodbye'.
A woman who died after being diagnosed with an infection linked to pigeon droppings "suffered too much", her daughter has told the Scottish Hospitals Inquiry.
She said her mother was put in a situation where "she had no defences whatsoever and the hospital played a big part in that". Craig Connal KC, senior counsel to the inquiry, asked whether there was any impact on her late mother's life due to cryptococcus.She said her mother did have a rare form of cancer which was being managed but her health deteriorated later in the year at the QEUH.Ms Armstrong said: "Her rapid decline had a massive effect on her length of life, I think.
Ms Armstrong was also asked about a meeting with senior management and clinical staff in September 2020 to discuss a significant clinical incident investigation report into her mother's death. She said the family felt they were being "manipulated" after it was suggested the only way cryptococcus could have got into the ventilation system was when the system was shut down and the filters were being changed.
