My Brother was taken to Treliske with hypercalcemia, he was very poorly, and needed transfusions.. I was phoned a little before 11pm and asked to collect him and bring him home (he lived with me) I said that wasn't possible and I would collect him first thing the next morning..
I woke at 6am and found my brother sitting in the garden in his dressing gown shivering with the cold (beginning of april) having been sent home at 3 am in a taxi!!
He could not get in.. he was totally confused and still very poorly... he had terminal cancer, you knew this and still you treated him in this appalling manner... I'm disgusted with the way he was treated.. he passed away a few months ago, after making me promise that I would never let anyone take him to Treliske again... I kept my promise to him, despite him needing treatment he never set foot inside that hospital again
