“When we got there, they found that Bert had a dangerously low blood oxygen level and we were sent straight to the Emergency Department. He was admitted to the COVID ward at Victoria Hospital, by 10:30 that night Bert was in ICU hooked up to a ventilator,” she said.
Soon after Bert Hannah was diagnosed with COVID and Pneumonia in both lungs. Roughly two weeks later, he was transferred to Royal University Hospital until the time of his death Wednesday night.
“Bert was an active man and did not want to spend the rest of his days in a bed hooked up to a machine. So we as a family made the decision to remove him from support and let him go on his terms,” Donna Hannah wrote.
