"The heartbroken parents of the stillborn baby girl who went missing from a Sydney hospital are bracing themselves for the worst possible news - their daughter was accidentally thrown away. Blacktown Hospital's most senior executive has told the family the most likely scenario is the baby was disposed of in "a tragic mistake". The 33-year-old mother from Western Sydney gave birth to a girl she later named Angelina in an ambulance on the way to Blacktown Hospital three weeks ago. Nine days later she was told by a hospital priest that the baby had "gone missing". The Daily Telegraph yesterday asked Western Sydney Area Health Service chief executive Stephen Boyages if he expected the investigation would conclude Angelina had been disposed of and he was forced to concede this was the most likely scenario.

The distressed father of the baby said yesterday the family is desperate for an explanation. "We don't know who we can trust. We can't trust anybody," he said. The family said they had come to terms with the death of their daughter but could never recover from the loss of her body and added "life could not be that cruel". "We have nothing left," they said in a statement..." |
