Khaberni - Georgia Taylor, aged 24, died under tragic circumstances after doctors sent her home twice with just painkillers, following her return from a holiday on the Greek island of Zakynthos.
The health of the young British woman, Georgia Taylor, began to decline in June when red spots appeared on her fingers, prompting her family members to advise her to remove her rings for fear of an allergic reaction.
In July, her symptoms worsened to include swelling in her face, especially around her eyes, and a rash that spread to her arm. Georgia consulted a general practitioner in London, where she was diagnosed with an allergy and prescribed antihistamines and hydrocortisone cream.
Despite the treatment, the swelling did not subside, forcing her to stop working. A few days later, she visited the emergency department due to difficulty breathing, but the doctors only gave her a quick check-up and then sent her home with more antihistamines.
In early August, Georgia traveled with her family to Greece for a short holiday. Although her overall appearance improved, she began to feel severe pain in her right leg while climbing a hill.
Her mother, Nicola, said that her daughter could barely walk, even though her face was no longer swollen. She added that the pharmacist prescribed ibuprofen gel and some painkillers, which alleviated the pain after two days.
After returning to the United Kingdom, Georgia traveled to Worcester to spend the weekend with friends, but the next day, she complained of severe pain in her leg, prompting a family member to arrange an urgent appointment with a physical therapist.
On the evening of August 20th, Georgia attended the appointment, but she sent a text message to her mother asking her to come quickly because she was feeling very unwell and needed to go to the hospital.
Nicola said, "We got there, and everything happened very quickly."
Emergency services arrived at the scene and transported Georgia to Wales University Hospital, where she died shortly thereafter in the presence of her family. The authorities have not yet announced the official cause of death.
Family shock and denial
Georgia's parents, Nicola and John, described the event as "horrific" and "unbearable pain," adding: "It was very shocking, we still cannot comprehend what happened. We wake up every morning asking ourselves: how did this happen? And how do we live without our beautiful daughter?"
The family confirmed that Georgia was in good health and always active, with no chronic diseases or medications, and she rarely took time off from work.
Her brother Joe, aged 21, said that his sister was passionate about sports, participated in the "London Marathon" at the beginning of this year in memory of their late grandfather, and loved skiing and running. He added that she "was open to everyone and did not judge anyone, and everyone who knew her loved her."
Her mother noted that Georgia was "a constant source of happiness," and that her laughter was "contagious and filled the atmosphere," and she was "surrounded by a large number of friends who she attracted like a magnet."
Her funeral, held on September 25th, was attended by more than 900 people, in a touching scene that reflects the love people had for her and their appreciation for her kind personality.
The family announced the creation of a webpage to collect donations for charity in her memory, continuing what she believed in helping others.
