kidz die for Hospital&its doctors  negligence ..parents claim 

health crime reporter(wp/weastar times/es):::

Doctors missed nine chances to save a dying two-year-old girl, her family have claimed.

The parents of Alice Mason say they pleaded with hospital staff for eight days before their daughter died and have told of a series of delays and failures.

In the two years since the death, her parents Rosalind and Gareth Mason have been fighting for answers.

Mrs Mason, 46, a former City trader, said: “It is not just that she died, not just that her last hours conscious were spent in pain, the question is whether she could have been saved.

“We were desperate, we could see Alice was getting sicker and sicker, but they treated us like a burden.”

Mrs Mason told the Sunday Telegraph: “I remember a nurse walking out of the room, saying ‘I’ve got to go and care for a really sick child now’.”

Alice had been a healthy baby but in late 2010 her parents noticed she had become clumsier. Doctors initially diagnosed an ear infection, but a brain tumour was later found.

She underwent successful surgery, and seemed to respond well to chemotherapy, which began in February 2011 at the Royal Marsden Hospital. But the following month, new symptoms emerged and she became dizzy, lethargic and unable to walk or sit unassisted. They contacted the Royal Marsden and their local hospital in Kingston, but were told that the problems were likely to be related to the chemotherapy.

Initially, doctors refused to carry out scans — even though specialists had said such checks should be ordered if the child’s symptoms worsened. Despite the pleas from her parents, no investigations were ordered. In total, they claim nine opportunities to act on the symptoms were missed.

By the time the tests were carried out, Alice had suffered irreversible brain damage, caused by water on the brain, and surgery could not save her. Mr and Mrs Mason hope an inquest next month will reveal what happened. Mr Mason added: “We want to ensure this never happens to another child.” A joint statement from Kingston Hospital NHS Trust, Royal Marsden NHS Foundation Trust and St George’s Healthcare NHS Trust, offered “deepest sympathy” to Mr and Mrs Mason. It added: “Unfortunately we cannot comment on the details of this case due to ongoing legal proceedings.”
