On the 16th of December Maegan O’Mahoney, at just 30 years of age, was tragically and suddenly taken away from her family. Leaving behind her two young children, partner, father and many more who loved her dearly. 
 
Let me tell you Maegan’s story. It is shocking and tragic and none of us can believe this has happened. 
 
On Friday the 13th of December Maegan was taken into hospital having not been feeling well and calling 999. The ambulance crew were worried as her blood sugars were dangerously low. At 5:30am Saturday Morning we were called and told she was medically fit for discharge but that she was refusing to leave. We informed them that we live 300 miles away but would call her to see what was happening. Maegan never answered the phone. 
 
Two hours later we found out she had been admitted to the High Dependency Unit and was being given glucose intravenously. Maegan was then moved to a general ward where she spent the rest of Saturday, and we were often told when we called them that she was sleeping. We later found out that she was actually in and out of consciousness, but Maegan’s condition was not being treat seriously. 
 
When we called Sunday morning, they told us they had taken more bloods because her blood sugars were all over the place. An hour later Maegan’s Dad was phoned and told he needed to get up to the hospital as she was very unwell, she was then transferred to the Intensive Care Unit. Her partner Brandon went straight up to hospital and Maegan’s dad and stepmum started the 300-mile journey up to Bradford which took them 8 hours due to traffic. We were all so confused as up until now we had just been told she was sleeping whenever any of us rang and Brandon would have gone to the hospital immediately had he been told what was happening. 
 
After numerous phone calls with the staff in the ICU, trying to understand what was happening, they informed me that Maegan’s organs were all failing but they couldn’t understand why. They informed me that they were planning to put her into a medically induced coma as she was barely conscious and not responding to anything they were doing. I informed them that her dad and step mum were traveling up, but unfortunately Maegan had been put into the coma before they got there. Her partner Brandon had been with her all day and refused to leave her side; she was not alone. 
 
The staff in ICU had Maegan hooked up to so many machines and lines of medication, more than anyone else they had worked on, so the ward sister told us. But her blood pressure was dangerously low and nothing they could do was raising it. 
 
Maegan’s family played videos of her children for her to listen to and her blood pressure started to stabilise slightly, but sadly, in the early hours of Monday morning Maegan could not fight any more and her heart stopped beating. The ICU team worked very hard to get her back, for what felt like forever to her family by her side. 

Tragically at 4am on Monday the 16th of December, the decision to stop resuscitation was made. Maegan was gone. 
 
Maegan had just turned 30 years old; she should have had her whole life ahead of her. Brandon had to tell their children that mummy wasn’t coming back, and now, Charlie, six, and Rosie, four, will have to learn to live on without her. Brandon has told them that mummy is helping Santa in the north pole this year and that she turns the sky pink for them. Maegan adored her children and had fears of ever having to leave them. But they are not alone, they have a loving father, grandparents, and many others who will love and support them. 
 
We’ve set up this page to help raise funds for Maegan’s funeral and for the children. A funeral for a life that was taken far too soon but who deserves the best send off possible. 

We know that times are hard for everyone, but any help that anyone can offer, no matter how small will be greatly appreciated. 
 
Maegan O’Mahoney, you are gone but never forgotten and your heart will live on in your two beautiful children. Rest In Peace.
