Woman dies after 11-hour wait to see a doctor in New Brunswick emergency room

Marianne Porter spent some of the final hours of her life hunched over and moaning in pain as she waited to be seen by an emergency room doctor at Moncton Hospital.

Porter waited for 11 hours before she was eventually seen.

It’s a period of time that Porter’s sister, Donna Bordage, believes contributed to her death only hours later.

“She was having a hard time breathing, she was visibly uncomfortable, she couldn’t stand up, she couldn’t eat,” Bordage told Global News on Thursday.
