A passenger who fell ill aboard SGR train from Mombasa to Nairobi on Friday has DIED.
Ms Florence Makau died while receiving treatment at Kibwezi Sub County Hospital on Friday evening.
Florence, who was diabetic, lost consciousness after her blood sugar rose. Doctors said that her blood pressure dropped.
A few minutes before the train reached the Kibwezi station, Florence's condition deteriorated, forcing the crew to make an emergency stop as they made frantic efforts to resuscitate her.
A series of attempts were made to offer her first aid before she was rushed to Kibwezi Sub County Hospital where she was admitted after her condition failed to stabilise.
A nurse at the hospital said the patient’s blood sugar had risen while her blood pressure dropped. She said the patient died an hour after being admitted to the facility.
