A MUM died after waiting five hours in an A&E department "clogged up" with drunks, her husband claimed last night.

Laura Martin, 39, desperately-ill went to the hospital at 3 am after vomiting and suffering pains in her head. The Medics helped her at 8.30am. She felt a little better and was sent home at 9am. Three hours later her symptoms returned. She had to wait another 2,5 hours, her heart rate went very high and she was put in e medical coma and they discovered her lungs were failing. Laura died of lung failure five hours later- just 24 hours after she first went in. Her husband is finding out exactly what killed laura and is heartbroken. “The A&E was overrun. It was Saturday and everyone came in from drinking night.” Docter helped them first because they didn’t know how seriously it was. But then when they got a little sober again they just walked out.

Reaction:
I can not believe that this happened. The lady was already ill, and I think they have her report already in the hospital. All the drunk people got priority because they did not know how drunk they were and if they were really sick. Laura came twice to the hospital with the same symptoms they could have taken her more seriously. It is a shame she had to die like this. She had a family who is left behind now.

I think that the drunkards did not deserve to be treated to begin with. They just helped people who lowered themselves by choice to the level of animals just so they get back on their feats and start drinking again. I mean this is just ridicules.
