Just absolutely horrendous. RIP
Mum-of-three Leanne Michelle Leary travelled to Istanbul on June 30 to undergo a £2,000 gastric sleeve procedure. After paying upfront for the surgery, the 38-year-old wanted to remove 80 per cent of her stomach.
A file has been passed to the coroner relating to Leanne's death, Rochdale Coroner's Court have confirmed. An inquest will then be listed in due course. As the father of two of Leanne's children, Steven said that his ex-wife suffered with her weight loss for many years after finding it difficult to shed the baby weight following her pregnancies with Kyle, 15, and Caitlin, 14. "Over the last few years she developed asthma which made it difficult for her to exercise," he said.
"A friend from school had the procedure in Turkey. She had amazing results and has lost nine stone. Leanne saw the result with her friend and thought she looked amazing. She was looking on Instagram and there are all these wonderful before and after pictures. "The procedure was for a gastric sleeve which is supposed to remove 80 per cent of your stomach," he said. "It was £2,000 for the whole package. I think the same procedure if you went privately in the UK was around £12,000.
"Apparently the hospital said she hadn’t put anyone down for her next of kin so they weren’t able to get in touch with us. Her parents booked a flight out to Istanbul but when they arrived at the hospital they were told she’d had another heart attack and had passed away."
