Heartbreaking Tragedy Unfolds: Mother's Neglect and Untimely Demise Revealed in Shocking Medical Records

In a harrowing personal account, grieving son Wayne Cunnington recounts the horrific ordeal his mother endured during the COVID-19 lockdowns. What should have been a time of support and compassion turned into a nightmare of neglect and mistreatment, ultimately leading to his mother Louise's untimely death. This distressing story sheds light on Government and the NHS care system that failed to provide adequate care and support when it mattered most.

Wayne's mother, who suffered from early onset of dementia, was in relatively good health. During Covid-19 lockdown however, she had 3 urinary tract infections (UTIs) which resulted in 3 admissions to Kettering General Hospital, the third of which lasted 7 weeks.

Shockingly, each time she was admitted she was subjected to repeated "Do Not Resuscitate" (DNR) orders, a distressing decision that would prove fateful. She was badly neglected during her hospital stays and even simple requests for her to be given the high calorie drinks she needed were ignored resulting in significant weight loss after each stay. Nursing staff blamed "staff shortages" for neglecting their duty to provide adequate care.

The third hospitalisation proved to be the tipping point of this tragic saga. Three weeks into her seven week stay she was transferred to a care home for a week, purportedly to "protect her from the looming threat of COVID-19". However, within a week she was rushed back to the hospital under the pretext of contracting the virus. Two weeks after being returned to hospital Wayne recorded a conversation with his mother on WhatsApp where she showed no signs of an illness and was talking perfectly fine.

The following day (Monday) Wayne was shocked to discover his mother had been put on a ventilator allegedy due to "discomfort." From that point on he was allowed to visit her wearing personal protective equipment (PPE). In all those visits he was never informed that she had been put on end-of-life (EOL) and that she would never recover. They had not asked for consent and he felt crucial details about her condition and the possibility of recovery were intentionally withheld from him.

Wayne describes a haunting series of mixed messages delivered over the phone during his mother's final days. Reports of her having "a good day" were interspersed with disturbing updates of her deteriorating condition. It became painfully apparent that his mother's life was slipping away. It was not until the last day of her life that Wayne discovered a Morphine driver attached to his mother's arm. Desperate for answers, he confronted the medical staff and was finally told that his mother would never recover.

Wayne was informed his mother didn't have long left. When he arrived at her bedside two nurses were present. One said "your mother was only hanging on because you have not let her go yet" and with a chilling nod to the second nurse the Morphine driver was turned up. Wayne had just enough time to bring in a priest to give his mother the last rites and within a couple of hours she was gone.

Wayne has since obtained his mother's medical records—a staggering 480 pages chronicling her harrowing journey. Within these records he uncovered shocking evidence of Midazolam and Morphine being administered without his knowledge or consent. The documents revealed an appalling lack of even the most basic care, including one incident where bed rails were not fixed in place properly, resulting in his mother being found on the floor. Most distressingly, the records repeatedly mention end-of-life care, a critical detail that was deliberately concealed from him.

Adding insult to injury, Wayne came across a final entry that read, "Son doesn't want to visit anymore." Presumably added after his mother's passing, this callous statement compounded his grief, suggesting that the medical staff had dismissed him following his last visit.

This deeply disturbing personal experience not only exposes the shocking mistreatment of vulnerable patients in NHS care but also raises bigger questions and concerns around the widespread use of the end-of-life protocols NG163 and NG191 (previously known as the controversial Liverpool Care Pathway) that was supposedly abolished back in 2014. 

What is even more worrying is the fact that the mass culling of the elderly and vulnerable was pre-planned. New Bills and legal changes were passed to give NHS new powers to put patients on end-of-life without requiring the patient or the family's consent. Contrary to what the main stream media say, these patients were NOT 'all at the end of their lives' or gravely ill. Many went in with minor ailments and never came out.
