Our Niamh Ni Mhurchu represented the family of 28-year old-diabetic Daniel Ammonsen in a high court clinical negligence action against a Limerick Medical Centre.
Daniel collapsed at home in February 2021, the day after he was seen by a doctor in the Centre and was brought to hospital. He was diagnosed with a cardiac arrest and diabetes ketoacidosis and died three days later, the court heard.
In a statement outside court, solicitor Niamh Ní Mhurchú on behalf of the family said they were devastated by the loss of Daniel, whose life was tragically cut short.
“Daniel was deeply loved and full of promise. While nothing can bring Daniel back, accountability matters. We hope that acknowledging what happened will help prevent other families from experiencing a similar loss. The length of time it took to get answers has compounded the family’s pain. No family should have to fight for clarity while grieving,” the statement added.
