A 26-year-old British woman, 莉, recently went to the emergency room of a district hospital in West Yorkshire due to severe pain in her leg. Unfortunately, after enduring 16 hours of continuous agony, she woke up to find that she had lost a leg. According to reports, one night in April 2020, 莉 experienced sudden pain, numbness, and discoloration in her left leg, prompting her to seek emergency treatment at the Dewsbury District Hospital. However, the hospital delayed surgery for 16 hours. To make matters worse, the result of this agony was the amputation of her left calf. When 莉 woke up from anesthesia, she saw the doctor showing her the amputated part of her leg, and at first, she couldn't believe it due to phantom limb sensations. But as reality set in, this woman, who loves running and works in nursing, felt incredibly sad, broke down in tears, and resigned from her nursing job after 18 days of hospitalization.
The hospital explained that at the time, doctors suspected that 莉 had a dangerous deep vein thrombosis, but did not conduct sufficient examinations, and the surgery was postponed until the next afternoon. The hospital admitted to its shortcomings. 莉 is currently undergoing legal proceedings for compensation with the hospital, emphasizing her hope that by sharing her story, others won't have to go through the same pain.
