A HORRIFIED daughter who found her mum covered in ants in a hospital bed has told how her dad endured an eight-hour A&E ordeal.
Dementia patient John Murphy, 81, was left on a trolley for almost eight hours while violently ill.
Last year, his daughter Ann-Marie was given an apology from the NHS after finding her mum Mary, 78, in a hospital room with ants crawling all over her.
The eight-hour wait inflicted on her dad John can be revealed after a series of waiting time scandals in the NHS. Health Secretary Alex Neil is under huge pressure as patients claim hospitals are overstretched.
