Suzanne: “It was horrible, it was horrible because then I couldn’t go with him you see, couldn’t explain what was happening. It was- It’s the most horrible traumatic situation, I still have those pictures in my mind all the time because then he was taken to a place, to the hospital in[place] which I knew from before was a very bad hospital with bad infection control and he went to accident and emergency there and from then it went from bad to worse.”
Ann: "So, after waiting the two hours, the ambulance came and then decided they were going to admit her and they blue-lighted her then to the [name of hospital], so she got into the [name of hospital] like early hours of the Saturday morning. And my mum hated hospitals, she was crying going in saying, “Don’t make me go, come with me.” But she had to get into the ambulance and off she went on her own.”
Sonal: "They [paramedics] told me to take him for an assessment. He wanted to actually drive. And I said, “No I will drop you.” And I just dropped him, and that was it. He took his water bottle, mobile phone and his wallet, and that was it. After four months, yes, I saw his dead body. My girls and I. That was it.”
Margaret: "My mum was very, very reluctant to go to hospital… But the GP said, “No,” that she really wanted her to go up to the local hospital, and basically I had to leave her at the door.
"They wouldn’t let me in with her. I mean she didn’t have dementia or anything, but you know she was 91...and she had macular degeneration, so her eyesight was poor, and she was very deaf, and she wore two hearing aids. And she said, 'If you just come in and settle me.' And I said, 'Mum, I can’t, I can’t come in. I’m not allowed.'
"Then she started getting a bit upset and said, 'Margaret, don’t leave me here because I won’t ever come back home again.' She was absolutely terrified. And that was the last kind of words that I spoke to her, kind of face to face, were, “Please, don’t take me in here because I won’t come back out.”
