Del Rees

If you light a candle on this page, can I please ask you too light one on my grandma Meta Madle and
grandma Betty Rees's pages too
Thank you


The last time i saw my grandad was new years day. He wasnt even poorly. The only comfort i had been
able to find is knowing that his death was like switching off a light so he didn't suffer, but now i
know it wasn't the case.

On Tuesaday 27th January late at night Del sufferered from excruciating back pain which he too pain
killers for. He was also suffering form severe vomiting and sweating. He phoned NHS direct for some
advice and they recommended that he got himself to hospital. They didn't send out a ambulance, even
thought the hospital wasn't far away, he had too drive himself. When he got to the hospital he was
seen by the doctors and they simply diagnosed him with just back pain which he sometimes suffered
from. Me and my family didn't know any of this, as we are quite a drive away so couldn't get there
soon enough. On Wednesday 28th, the cleaner went in as usual and found him already asleep on the
bathroom floor so there was nothing that could be done to save him.

My grandad then had to go in for an autopsy as we all had no idea what had gone on. It was found he
had suffered from a ruptured aneurysm in his lower abdomon. We found a prescription on the table, so
we thought he had called the doctor, out so because of this an inquest had to be done.

We have now found out, that if the doctors at the hospital had looked into the symptoms in greater
deatai, an oporation could have been done, that could have saved his life. There was a chance her
wouldn't of made it, but because in all other ways he was healthy there was a good chance of
survival.

The court hearing will be in September. I know nothing we do can bring him back, but i want the
doctor who dismissed him to know exactly what happened because he didn't look into the symptoms. I
also don't want anybody else to got through what my whole family has been put through.

Del really was a one of a kind grandather. Even though he used to trade me, he never failed too make
me laugh. Even when my grandma sadley passed away, he always tried his best to continue her legacy.
We always used too have competitions when either of us went away too see who could bring back the
silliest present.


After we lost my grandma, things were never quite the same. He kept going for our sake even though
he longed too be with her,
I love my grandad more then anything and he kept me going, when I felt like giving up.

I shall do my very best to make you proud of me, and you are an inspiration to never give up so i
never will.

I love you so much Dadcu sleep well back with Mamgu and keep her safe.

i'm sorry

love
