Dozens of bereaved family members gathered in Kitsilano on May 7th 2022, demanding justice for children they say died due to medical negligence. The memorial walk started at McBride Park, ending at the office of BC Attorney General David Eby.
Dozens gathered in Vancouver Saturday for the inaugural “Mothers for Justice Memorial Walk.”
Many of those attending have lost loved ones, alleging the deaths were due to medical negligence. Now, they are channeling their grief into calls for justice and a campaign for change.
Emilie Negahban’s son Nathaniel was alive for only eight hours before he died in his mother’s arms this past February.
But the first-time mother and her husband have been re-traumatized after learning their son’s body has been ready to be brought back home for eight weeks — and no one told them.
