Jay and Louise Patel are determined to seek justice following the death of their disabled son, Balram, who they believe died as a result of clinical failures after being discharged from the hospital. They argue that Balram should have received intravenous treatment instead of oral diuretics upon his discharge from St Thomas's Hospital, and they were unaware of the seriousness of his heart condition. The family has criticized the coroner's recent ruling that attributed Balram’s death to natural causes, expressing their outrage and intent to pursue a judicial review for accountability and change in the healthcare system.
There was nothing natural about the way my son died. Balram died because of a series of clear, documented, and avoidable clinical failures.
This verdict may mark the end of the inquest but it is only the beginning of our fight for truth, justice, and change.
It's disgusting really. It feels like they're playing God. The doctors decided when he should die. They didn't give him a last chance.
He should have been given a chance. He was a fighter all his life.
