SAINT JOHN, N.B. A New Brunswick father is speaking out tonight after he says his daughter was essentially left stranded in Nova Scotia for about a week. After being transferred to hospital in Halifax for a biopsy, he says there was confusion around who would be bringing her back home and when. Darrell Tidd s daughter, Ashley, was transferred from the Saint John Regional Hospital to the QEII on April 22 for a biopsy. The 26-year-old Ashley has been diagnosed with leukemia and there are concerns she could have another form of cancer. The biopsy was completed the next day, but her father says she was then left in a sort of limbo.
