TRAGIC MUM'S CANCER DEATH AFTER PHONE APPOINTMENT MISDIAGNOSIS
CHARLOTTE HALL
If a GP had seen my wife she might still be here

WHEN Laura Barlow received her full cancer diagnosis, she wasn't even told how long she had left. She was simply told there was 'nothing the doctors could do' and that she should 'go home and spend time with her kids.

For months, the 33-year-old had been living in pain. She believed it was related to an endometriosis diagnosis she'd received during a five-minute phone call with her GP, according to her husband. By the time her doctors referred her to a cancer clinic three months later, there was nothing they could do.

Laura passed away at her home three days after her final diagnosis, leaving three children aged nine, two and one and husband Mike, who she met while they were working at the very hospital her husband claims 'failed her.

Mike was devastated by the loss of his beloved wife. He was also angry.

Mike believes if Laura had been seen by her GP in person, she would have been diagnosed sooner.
