Summary
A damning report exposes catastrophic failures at Scotland’s Queen Elizabeth University Hospital maternity unit, where women waited up to 21 hours — and in one case, over 100 hours — for critical care, amid staff shortages and unsafe working conditions. The tragedy reignites grief for Mohammed Hameed, whose daughter Leyan died just eight days after birth; he’s now fighting for answers and accountability, frustrated by a review process that feels like a revolving door of delays. As the hospital pledges 26 improvements and an apology, bereaved families demand direct meetings with top government officials to tackle systemic flaws — and they’re not waiting for promises.
