OUR BABY BOY NEVER GOT A CHANCE IN LIFE
(Printed in the evening telegraph on
27th October 2003)
A GRIEVING mother, who lost her baby while waiting for a Caesarean operation, is demanding an
inquiry into her hospital treatment.
Michelle Howarth was just six months pregnant when her waters broke and she was taken into
hospital.
After moving hospitals three times and being left for three hours waiting for an emergency Caesarean
operation, her baby was stillborn in Burnley General Hospital.
A tearful Michelle, who regularly visits her son Ryan's grave at Burnley Cemetery, said: "I am
absolutely devastated. I sleep with his baby grow next to me at night and I still cannot bring
myself to get rid of the things that we bought for him. This has put me off having children - I will
never have another because of what I have been through."
After waiting in the delivery suite for 10 hours she was told she would have to be moved to Hope
Hospital, Manchester, because there was no room in the special care baby unit.
She was taken by ambulance and was again taken to the delivery suite, but after spending the day
there she was told she would have to be moved to Tameside Hospital because there was an emergency
admittance.
Michelle stayed in Tameside overnight but asked if she could be moved back to Burnley General
Hospital the following day to be near her partner Alan Taylor and her nine-year-old daughter Demi.
A space at Burnley was found for her and, on her fourth day in hospital, she was taken back to the
delivery suite where she had started.
She had been having contractions on and off over the four days, but they became stronger at Burnley,
she was also running a temperature and was put on anti-biotics for an infection, which was
potentially harmful to the baby.
Michelle was told by a doctor that she would be taken for an emergency Caesarean section at 3am. At
this point she had a high temperature and her blood pressure was up, and the baby's heart was
beating at a rapid 180 beats per minute.
She claims that 3am came and went, the Caesarean was not performed and by 6am Ryan had died.
Michelle said: "I was left alone for three hours and in that time my son died. Now I want a full
inquiry about this. I will not rest until I know why I was left for three hours. Even though he was
premature, if they had gone ahead with the Caesarean section at least he would have had a chance of
survival but he was never even given that."
Alan said: "We were told at Hope Hospital that was a good size for a baby of only 26 weeks and if he
had been born then he would probably have been in the special care baby unit for three or four
months but would have had a 90 per cent chance of survival."
