My girlfriend, Michelle McFeely of Coleraine, died on 25th January 2008 aged
30.
Post mortem was carried out, but no cause of death was found. When speaking
to her sister she said her father's side had a history of problems with the
heart.
Michelle had a monitor from the hospital which measured heart palpitations,
as she had them very occasionally - but the week and a half she had the
monitor she didn't have any, so obviously the monitor couldn't register
anything.
A week before she died she suffered from a nasty bout of flu but thought it
was going away so returned to work. The second night back at work she
walked home and it was very cold and windy. I texted her at 12.30am and she
said she was fine and going to bed.
I returned home around 7.30am and discovered her dead in her bed.
I'm now waiting on tests to come back that they did on her heart to see if
they could find a reason for her death.
My girlfriend was always healthy and never suffered from colds or any other
illnesses.
