"The family of a patient at Queen Elizabeth Hospital in Charlottetown is vowing to protest in front of Province House until the woman is transferred to a hospital in Halifax.
The four relatives, who began the protest on Sunday, claim Fern Yates, 64, isn't being properly cared for at the QEH, and they want her moved.
They said Yates had an operation in December to relieve a blockage that was reducing circulation to her legs. Within a week, she was airlifted to Halifax, where doctors found and repaired a hole in her bowel.
According to the family, Yates was transferred back to the QEH in January to recuperate but has since developed bedsores and infections."
Sad and unfortunate story..... but I love this story comment:
"Git your arses to the QEH and stay with her till she is better ya pack of morons. You obviously have nothing better to do."
