A FAMILY have been left reeling after a 'kind' and 'bubbly' mum-of-three died alone in a Turkish hospital following a £2,000 gastric sleeve procedure.
Leanne Michelle Leary, 38, travelled to Istanbul on June 30 and paid upfront for the operation on July 1, which would see around 80 per cent of her stomach removed if successful.
The loving mum, from Hollinwood, Oldham, was said to be excited about the procedure and sent a final picture of herself in her hospital gown to her family Whatsapp chat.
But when nobody had heard from Leanne for a number of hours after the procedure was due to finish, they began to grow concerned. After finally managing to reach the hospital, they were informed she 6 had suffered a heart attack but that she was in a stable condition.
Her parents are understood to have flown out to Turkey the following day, but when they arrived at the hospital, they were informed she'd suffered another heart attack and had tragically passed away.
The family are still waiting for answers about how Leanne's condition deteriorated so quickly, and her body has since been flown back to the UK where an autopsy is expected to take place.
Rochdale Coroner's Court have confirmed that a file relating to Ms Leary's death has been passed to the coroner, and an inquest will be listed in due course.
