Mum, 28, dies on Turkey holiday before family hit with horrific find in autopsy…
 

…I don’t think we have this story here but it’s something that I’ve just come across and sounds pretty horrific…Beth Martin, aged 28 years died very suddenly on holiday in Turkey…that in itself was shocking for the family but then it was found that her heart had been removed from her body without the family being consulted at all ….




The family of a 28-year-old mum who died on holiday were left with a horrifying shock following her autopsy.

Beth Martin had been on holiday in Turkey when she was rushed to hospital after becoming "delirious" just one day into the trip. Tragically, after being admitted into critical care, Beth died on April 28.

But for Beth's family, including her husband, Luke, the tragedy did not end there after an autopsy was carried out in the UK, the Mirror reports.

In a shocking discovery, doctors who carried out the procedure found that Beth's heart had been removed without her family being told.

A post on GoFundMe shared: "The UK autopsy began. And then the final blow: Beth’s heart was missing. The Turkish hospital has removed it. No explanation. No consent. They have invaded her body and they have TAKEN her heart."

It added: "They are grieving, traumatised — and now trying to put the pieces of their family back together. After everything the family have been through - Luke believes passionately that this is something that cannot be taken lying down."

The mum-of-two became ill shortly after the family landed on April 27, and Luke called an ambulance the following day. Beth was taken to a hospital described as "destitute", and Luke even claimed he was "banned" from seeing Beth.

Sharing his grief in a post on social media, Luke wrote: "2 weeks ago me, my wife and 2 kids set out for a family holiday to Turkey. Only 3 of us made it back. I lost my wife, my children lost their mum, we lost the biggest piece of the puzzle that was our family.

"It has been the worst and most traumatic week of my entire life, and to top it off.. I had to break the news to my babies that their mum isn't coming home, it broke me. Even more so when I had to say goodbye to them so they could be brought home by family.

"I stayed in Turkey another 2 days to ensure she was brought back, and booked myself on the same flight home. Knowing my wife was still on my flight but I couldn't be next to her broke me even more."

Luke has claimed that he was not told about the full seriousness of Beth's condition, even claiming that Turkish authorities accused him of "poisoning" her.

Since then, the hospital that treated Beth, from Portsmouth, before her tragic death is now reportedly being investigated for negligence.

Her family are fighting for answers, including the location of her heart.

[Beth’s heart was missing.]


Tragic young mother's heart sold

[The practice of illegal organ trading
is alive & well in Turkey,
where hospitals have previously
faced accusations of stealing organs
and facilitating illegal transplants
for wealthy people looking
to jump the queue.]

Poor guy awful thing to happen, there was a report last week and organs being taken while patients were under for cosmetic procedures.... just horrendous, they have to take the organ while the patient is still alive so it begs the question was she murdered surely?

How can they find out?


I wonder if the Hospital cameras
Were turned off?

Very tragic and does all sound very suspicious. Young healthy people don't just fall ill randomly and die the next day

For them to take her heart, she would have had to have still be alive during the whole ordeal

It's like something out of a horror film

Agreed.

… now that her body is back and a UK autopsy carried out…wouldn’t they surely be able to tell if she was alive when her heart was removed…?…and yeah, where is her heart, I guess is the question…?…is this some kind of complete mess up at the hospital in Turkey…(…which was a very low rated hospital according to articles…)…or is her heart currently beating in another body…


….originally it was apparently suspected that she’d been poisoned by her husband…but that wouldn’t make sense with an organ use/theft…/it would be a poisoned organ…very, very grizzly and so many unanswered questions for the family…

I'll remember this when the ads come on about how Turkey is the new cool and how we should all visit. I made up my mind I would never visit when they had a massive cull of street dogs, to the dismay of a lot of Turks. It's not on my list.

…yeah, it seems to be getting more and more weird as well…the Turkish government have spoken now and said that her heart wasn’t removed…but it has apparently been removed and the Turkish hospital said that it wasn’t removed there, the body was intact when it left them….and multiple organ failure, how does a healthy young woman suddenly die of multiple organ failure…it’s a horror story….

Playing into the poison theory.

Could someone high up within Turkey's Medical industry have poisoned the woman, so that they could sell her Heart for profit?

Obviously I hope that I'm wrong.

…but surely if someone was poisoned to cause death then the organs would be poisoned as well and become not healthy to sell…?…

That's the part that I don't get.

If the poison theory is correct that is.

There are presumably loads of drugs that mimic all manner of conditions … without being fatal

…there is nothing about organs being removed but apparently Beth Martin died of food poisoning, which she contracted on her first day in Turkey…

Well if it's any consolation, at least it weren't murder.

Food poisoning can be anything up to and including cholera. We tend to take a lot regarding food preparation for granted, but in the wrong countries it can be very, very serious. I had the worst food poisoning of my life when i was on holiday in Tunisa, and it's a country i would never go back to
