My husband was taken to Geelong Emergency Department from home in the ambulance due to not being able to breathe properly and not feeling too well at all. A CAT scan was done and his first ever chest x-ray which found nothing wrong. The doctor told him he had a virus and he said to the doctor, "I haven't got a virus, I have a back pain that won't go away and I keep passing out at times. I don't have a virus." When I got into the hospital with our son they were telling him to get up and go home there is nothing to worry about, it is just a bad virus. My husband had never been to hospital in his life this was the first time as he was always a well man who looked after himself. A couple of months later he collapsed at home due to an aneurysm. He died in hospital.
"Grieving the loss of my beloved husband."
