'She wasn’t just my wife, she was my best friend'

Nayyab Tariq, 28, died after giving birth to a baby girl on Saturday March 22 last year at Mayo University Hospital.

“She was a great human being, she wasn’t just my wife, she was my best friend,” said the husband of a woman who died hours after giving birth last year in Mayo.
