Woman married months before death, inquest told

A smiling bride who got married while terminally ill died six months later, an inquest heard.

Christine Gibbons, 39, from Gardiner St, Dublin, died at the Mater Hospital on August 24, 2015. She had married her fiancé of 17 years only months earlier.

Ms Gibson, who developed a rapid growth tumour in her liver, was taken off the transplant list because the cancer was so aggressive. She died due to liver cancer complicated by cirrhosis of the liver due to hepatitis C which she acquired in her early 20s as a result of drug use.
