SITTING at the funeral of a young man lost to suicide, Cherie Thompson feared she would be next in line to grieve a child.
Ms Thompsonâs adult son, Shaun âSonnyâ Greer, is an inmate at Wacolâs Brisbane Correctional Centre.
She claimed he has been denied basic medical care despite suffering from crippling anxiety, depression and physical pain due to multiple slipped discs in his back.
Multiple requests for support â submitted by herself, Mr Greer and his partner Marlina Sendon â have allegedly fallen on deaf ears.
âHe hasnât gotten anywhere at all; they just keep telling him to put the paperwork in, in this blue envelope. Heâs done that several times,â Ms Thompson said.
