A woman whose partner died by euthanasia after developing a bedsore during a stay at a Quebec hospital says medical staff did not respond to her requests to improve his conditions, which she says might have prevented the wound.
Sylvie Brosseau made the comments at the Montreal Courthouse, where a public inquiry is being held into the death of her partner, Normand Meunier, who requested medical assistance in dying (MAID) after developing a serious bedsore while being treated for a respiratory virus at St-Jérôme Hospital, where he was left on a stretcher for four days.
