Radiation overdose teenager dies

[Setarime]

A 16-year-old cancer patient who was given massive overdoses of radiation earlier this year has died.
Lisa Norris, from Girvan in Ayrshire, received at least 17 overdoses during treatment for a brain tumour at the Beatson Oncology Centre in Glasgow.

The chairman of NHS Greater Glasgow and Clyde said everyone was "extremely upset at the sad news".

Sir John Arbuthnott said his staff would do everything they could to support Lisa's family.

"I have passed on my condolences on behalf of the whole organisation," he said.

Quote from BBC News Website.

Sir John 'Fatcat' Arbuthnott being 'upset' that Lisa has died will be of no help to her family, that wont bring her back. If his staff hadnt cocked it up in the first place there wouldn't have been this tragic loss of such a young life
