coroner will read statement that will be passed to press after

-Lots of discussion about other cases and whether Article 2 [ECHR - right to life] can be engaged or not, sounds like it won’t

We are at the first discharge (March 21) in the Coroners statement.

I can see we will have a lot to discuss later.
Bear in mind the 27 September will be purely looking at whether Prevention of Future Deaths report is required.
 
We are now up to the 2nd admission. {I will add text to this a little later to describe what the tweet says}

Failure to refer to DR Strain and GP at the centre of control they failed to recognise the danger. This could have contributed to Maeve’s decline. Not enough determine it caused her death.

Dr Roy - was confident she would not survive aspiration

The Coroner is up to Maeve’s 3rd admission. She’s been reading her findings of fact for around an hour.

[edit at 16.30- Paul Keeble made a correction, we are still on 2nd admission in May]

Nobody on twitter is feeling positive about the statement so far. It’s a detailed review of evidence and the press release etc will probably sum up the facts much better than the tweets could. It’s going over the evidence we’ve all heard.

But we still have the Prevention of Future Deaths hearing on 27 September.

ME Advocates Ireland - as we see it, overarching points
1. NO contingency plan if artificial feeding failed, hospital or community
2. ZERO Severe ME or ME expertise anywhere

It’s moved on to social services evidence.

Lack of DCC services did not cause death - coroner (via Paul Keeble)

Coroner did not find any Consultants didn’t believe it was a real disease. Impressed by their compassion.
