Marie Stibbe, a 79-year-old retired woman in Tiverton, Devon, says she was discharged from hospital with paracetamol after delays in receiving NHS cancer care. She was diagnosed with liver cancer at the start of March, following symptoms that included severe leg itching that kept her from sleeping. According to the report, while she was waiting for NHS treatment for about three months, her tumour doubled in size. The account states that she was then sent home with paracetamol rather than receiving further cancer treatment at that time. The coverage highlights concerns about the length of the wait and the impact on her condition, including the change in tumour size during the delay. The reports are presented as her claims, with limited additional context provided about clinical decisions, the specifics of the care pathway, or whether there were alternative treatment steps during the waiting period. The story centers on her experience of delayed treatment and what she says she was given when she was discharged.
