I really object to being quoted out of context

The son was not in NewZealand at the time, we were over here in
England on holidays from New Zealand.

Please if you are going to quote me, makes sure you quote correctly.
We came back to England on our way to Oman in February 1998 and were
in England when the FIL fell, while in Tickhill Road Hospital awaiting
discharge and he fractured his hip. Sixteen days later he died, not
from the femur fracture, but the heart failure and PCa. The first we
knew of the PCa was when were taken aside and asked about a DNR.
Rather a shocking introduction to the NHS and finding out about FIL's
cancer.

So what is your complaint?
That he failed to get his prostate checked earlier?
That he failed to communicate his cancer to his family? (you and your husband).
That he failed to get appropriate pain management?

Was he diagnosed early or it was already in his bones?
