A 47-year-old man, who was living away from his partner in isolation, has died alone at his home after he contracted coronavirus.
Tim Galley, from Wrexham, North Wales, was fit and healthy before he started showing coronavirus symptoms after he went on a stag do.
Tim, who worked at the M&S Bank, developed a fever and had a sore throat before he decided to skip work.
He self-isolated after he learned it was coronavirus symptoms.
His partner Donna Cuthbert told they were forced to live apart as Tim wanted to protect her and banned her from visiting him.
Donna said: “Of course I was very worried about when he developed the fever, as I was worried about the coronavirus.”
When his health deteriorated, Donna told him to call an ambulance but he refused saying, he had no underlying health conditions.
When Donna told him about her fears that they won’t be able to see each other for a couple of weeks, Tim said: “Don’t be silly, of course, you will.”
However, Donna didn’t get any call from Tim after that and he didn’t return any of her calls.
That’s when she asked Tim’s neighbor to check on him and they found him dead in bed at his flat.
Tim died alone at home and Paramedics in protective clothing took away his body from his flat.
Donna said: “Paramedics in protective clothing came, and I just can’t bare the thought he was all alone.”
Donna described Tim as someone with ‘a massive heart’ who was adored by her children.
She said they were supposed to be attending her daughter Danielle’s wedding but it was canceled because of the coronavirus crisis.
She added: “We went on so many holidays and had so many things planned. He was my future. Tim gave me so much love happiness and amazing times.”
Donna urged to take the government and health professionals’ advice seriously and stay indoors as the deadly virus is taking people’s lives around the world.
