The parents of a four-year-old autistic boy who died two days after being discharged from a Nottingham hospital without being given a blood test are suing over his death, lawyers said. Harry Procko, who was born with a hole in his heart, was referred to Nottingham Children’s Hospital in June after getting a severe stomach bug. His family’s lawyers say he was sent home the following day after doctors decided he didn’t need blood tests. He died two days later on June 23. A blood test taken immediately before his death found that his blood pH level was so skewed he had no chance of survival. Harry’s parents, Richard Clements and Maria Procko, from Nottingham, are demanding answers into their son’s death.
