A father who is now tasked with taking care of his children after their mother, Carol Bollers, died last month at the Georgetown Public Hospital (GPH) is determined to get answers and justice and has started taking the necessary steps although he has not yet been able to obtain the post-mortem examination results.
Bollers, a resident of Festival City, North Ruimveldt and a mother of five, was taken to the hospital June 15 after she was experiencing terrible back pain, her husband Robert Greaves, called Bobby, had said. He has since blamed officials at the hospital for her death, claiming that they performed two operations on her without his consent.
Greaves told this newspaper yesterday that he is still being “pushed around” as he attempts to obtain the results of the post-mortem examination performed on his wife so that he can know what her cause of death was. Bollers has already been buried.
The post-mortem examination was conducted a few days after Bollers’s death and when relatives asked for a copy of her death certificate they were told they needed to wait two weeks since other tests had to be done. To date, Greaves said, he has been continuously going to the hospital for the certificate to no avail. On the last occasion, he said, he was told that he will be called as soon as it is available.
However, the man said, he met a lawyer who is well known to him and who offered to assist him with the matter since from all indications something appeared to be wrong. Greaves has since taken a letter given to him by the lawyer to the administration of the GPH and is awaiting a response.
“I have to get somewhere with this matter, cost what it may because it ain’t going down like that. They got to find answers and I got to get justice for my children,” said Greaves.
Speaking to the Stabroek News previously, he had angrily expressed his dissatisfaction with the entire matter. The man had noted that his wife’s case was not the first of its kind.
