PARENTS whose baby was stillborn say they will not rest until Health and Social Services apologises for the death of their infant son. Steve and Louise Honey blame Princess Elizabeth Hospital staff for blunders they say led to the death of baby Dean. The aggrieved couple insist their concerns were not addressed at the time and have demanded answers. The department said there would be an internal investigation before referral to an external body, should that be deemed necessary. Speaking after visiting baby Dean for the last time at a funeral parlour, father Mr Honey said: ‘I appreciate what Health is doing, but it is not enough. We will not give up until they apologise for Dean’s death,’ he said. ‘We haven’t had any offers of help, but we will pay for an advocate ourselves if we have to. This is our son’s life we are talking about. ‘We have had a lot of calls of support from people, including one lady from the UK who said she had exactly the same thing happen to her two years ago in Guernsey. ‘She said she got an official apology from Health and told us to carry on fighting and we will.’ The devastated couple claim PEH staff ignored their concerns before the birth and accused them of poor treatment during the birth itself. Health minister Peter Roffey offered his sympathy to the couple but pointed out that an investigation was standard practice following a complaint.
