Martin Weldon, 35, died at the Queen Elizabeth University Hospital on August 13, 2022.
Martin Weldon died at the Queen Elizabeth University Hospital in Glasgow on August 13, 2022. The 36-year-old had been admitted for treatment after he suffered a diabetic hypo.
Mr Weldon, who had diabetes, suffered hypoglycemia – a condition where the level of sugar in the blood drops too low – causing a severe brain injury. He had originally been ‘making progress’ after four months of treatment, although he still faced having to learn to walk and talk again. But just two days after his birthday, Mr Weldon, from Dumbarton, died at the super-hospital after allegedly 'being administered medication in error'. Blake Dolan, from Glasgow, appeared at Glasgow Sheriff Court on Thursday charged with culpable homicide.
The 31-year-old made no plea or declaration. He was granted bail while the case was submitted for further examination.Acting for the Weldon family, lawyer Aamer Anwar said: “The Weldon family have instructed our firm as solicitors and any communications will be made through us. As a family not a day goes by where they don’t think about Martin.
"He will forever be cherished. All they ask for is privacy at this very difficult time. As proceedings are live it would be inappropriate to comment further."Don't miss the latest news from around Scotland and beyond - Sign up to our daily newsletter here.
