Mum died suddenly on Sunday. She collapsed in her nursing home & was
taken by ambulance to Glan Clwyd hospital near Rhyl, with one of her carers.
After I had waited in accident & emergency for half an hour or so I was
taken to a private room to be told that she had died.
The coroner rang today to say she'd had a heart attack....coroner involved as
it was a sudden death & she had last been seen by her GP over two weeks
ago. He had wanted to stop mum's Aricept but my sister had persuaded him not
to. He did however stop her daily injections for a clot she had on her abdomen...
she had been having these for six months.
Mum was diagnosed with AD in 2001, although we knew she hadn't been quite
'right' for a couple of years before that.
Reading the sympathy cards from family & friends brings me to tears.
Mum was 84.
