A 350lb. grandmother claims she will die if she isn’t given a gastric bypass, after her operation was cancelled for the second time.
Louise Hastings, 45, was set to undergo surgery on the NHS at Heartlands Hospital, Birmingham this March in a bid to shed the pounds.
The procedure, which shrinks the stomach and restricts the appetite is designed to help people with life-threatening obesity lose weight. It costs between £10,000 and £15,000.
