Shock: UK’s Socialist Healthcare Czar Dies Waiting for Surgery From Her Own Hospital

The Former NHS director has died while waiting for an operation for over 9 months, and it happened in her own hospital.

Margaret Hutchon had her surgery cancelled 4 times already.
Her husband Jim reported that she was healthy the week prior to her death but that the delays destroyed her health.

What is most ironic is that she died in the hospital where she serves as non-executive member of the board of directors. She was due for a followup surgery to stomach ulcers at the Broomfield hospital in Chelmsford, Essex.
Now her completely devastated husband, Jim, is asking for answer in regards to her operations and the delays.

After the first surgery, she languished in the hospital for so long, her family become worried she was becoming institutionalized and brought her home to live until her second operation.

‘From July to October there was talk of another operation and then between November and December there were three or four postponements and she was becoming so institutionalised we decided to get her home until an operation was certain.

‘It was a blessing because although neither of is could have guessed it – it gave us a last month together.

‘Nevertheless, she was unable to take proper nourishment and went into the operation on the better side of a low state – she was very weak.’ 

Mike Mackrory, a fellow Liberal Democrat councillor, said: We were all stunned to hear she had died after the operation. There were constant delays she had to endure before surgery.

‘We were given the very sad news and as word spread it threw a pall over the civic dinner. Margaret was much loved and respected in this town.’ 

A spokesman for Broomfield Hospital said it could not comment on individual cases.
