The woman suddenly seemed stressed and went into the bathroom holding her neck “as if there was something stuck.”
A Dublin woman suffered irreversible brain damage after choking on a croissant in her home 16 months ago, an inquest has heard.
Post-mortem results disclosed at a sitting of Dublin District Coroner’s Court on Monday confirmed that there were no new or recurrent tumours which could have been a factor in the fatal choking incident. She claimed her sister suddenly seemed stressed and went into the bathroom holding her neck “as if there was something stuck.”
She said paramedics were at the house by the time she got back and her sister was treated at the scene before being brought to St James’s Hospital. Ms Gannon said post-mortem results had shown Ms FitzGerald had no new or recurrent tumours but there was scarring of her oesophagus.
