One of the two remaining survivors from a plane crash near Penticton in August can’t get a doctor to accept him at Vancouver General Hospital.
Vincent Hannay is out of the intensive care unit at Kelowna General Hospital, and his family wants him back in Vancouver to continue his recovery.
His uncle Rick Hannay says BC Bedline has an airlift set up, and there’s a bed at VGH available.
But there’s just one problem, no doctor will accept him.
“We’ve been working on this for 10 days and it’s just very frustrating, so we’ve ended up resorting to going to the media for help.”..”We’ve been waiting for him to be airlifted to VGH and have been running into all kinds of blocks. They’ve been waiting for a bed to be available and there is one now. BC Bedline are the agency that transports them and they’re ready to pick up Vincent and transport him down to VGH and there’s no doctor available.”
Hannay’s diabetic mother has been living in a Kelowna motel for weeks to be with her son.
