This is so sad, were they both sudden? Or sick?

I can’t even comprehend how tough going through this would be.

Far out. Thoughts with merv

Can’t fathom how awful that would be

bomber_girl · October 9, 2017, 7:46am

That’s horrific.

Very sad news.

Condolences just don’t seem enough. Hoping he has a lot of support around him.

He’s on open mike tonight, opens up on the tragic events of last year.

Anyone else watching Merv Keane on Open Mike?
Heartbreaking stuff, I totally missed the news RE his daughter and wife.
For those of you that have Foxtel I highly recommend recording it, compelling stuff.

Very sad story

bigallan · April 17, 2018, 11:09am

There was also an article in the Hun yesterday ( behind paywall)

WesternDon · April 17, 2018, 11:44am

Unbelievable courage to take to the screens and open up about something so private, seemingly for the chance that it may help even just one person.

Perspective, Bravo.

miss_ellie · April 17, 2018, 12:27pm

Thanks for posting

westozziebomber · April 17, 2018, 12:48pm

Watching now, fkn hard stuff to watch

Did the wife take her own life? I’m presuming this is the case

Alan_Noonan_10 · April 17, 2018, 12:51pm

That’s what it said in the article.

Horrific for Merv, must have enormous strength to carry on and do his best to make a difference.

It is a very tough life as a young doctor in a hospital and he used extremely mild language regarding the Coronor, if the Coronor in anyway could be construed as blaming his daughter’s family for the tragedy that is more than terrible.

The Coronor as a medical person should have a good perspective on the shortcomings of the medical system in hospitals where the hours are ridiculously long and stress is extremely high, what Merv is doing is on the money, I have heard of a couple of doctors who have lost their lives to the stress of the job and the lack of support they get.

Congratulations to Merv Keane on a fantastic career. Did a great job with our recruiting over the last few years. suffered a terrible personal loss last year, and now looking to make a difference for young doctors in his retirement years. A true champion we will miss him.
