Hospital apology in baby death case ‘too late’

That was the damning verdict against the HSE given by a Limerick couple who had to endure six years of “pain and torment” after their newborn died in 2009 at the then Mid-Western Regional Hospital. A jury at Limerick Coroners Court yesterday returned a verdict of medical misadventure.
Speaking outside the court, Caoimhe’s parents, John and Joan Mulcair, said: “The persons involved should be ashamed of themselves for putting an ordinary decent family through the pain and torment that we had to endure for over six years.”
