The family of a 28-year-old man with diabetes who died days after he was seen by a doctor has settled a High Court action against a Limerick medical centre over his death. Daniel’s mother, Inga Ammonsen, of Garryowen, Co Limerick, had sued Park Lodge Medical Centre, Dublin Road, Rhebogue, Limerick, over her son’s death. Counsel said Daniel’s mother had phoned the practice on February 17, 2021, saying her son was unwell. Counsel said it was their case the medical practice was aware of Daniel’s diabetes diagnosis and diabetes ketoacidosis is a well-known issue for diabetics which can cause fatal injuries. There was also, it was contended, an alleged failure to ensure close monitoring of Daniel’s glucose levels.
