Home to come back in @ 8pm Sunday eve for procedure today under general anaesthetic- that never happened - my daughter ( who is recovering from Ovarian cancer) had to call LRI in desperation to inform them of her husbands deterioration she was virtually inconsolable - then suddenlly Dr's decided to keep my son in law informed!! He then spent yet another 24 wasted hours nil by mouth as now decided to do a procedure on the 23/07! IF specialised radiologist available- right hand left hand syndrome- except LGH you are playimg with my son in laws chance of life! Get your act together!

Hi Chrissy We are truly sorry to learn of our son-in-law’s diagnosis and completely recognise what a difficult time this must be. Are you able to provide us with further details as we would like to investigate this further? We would need the name of your son-in-law, his address, date of birth and the name of his consultant (if you know it). Kind regards, Communications Team Leicester’s Hospitals
