    Pronounced dead over a screen: What happened to Conor?

    A Connecticut family is speaking out after their son Conor died less than 24 hours after being admitted to a hospital for what appeared to be dehydration. In this episode of Say More, Conor’s father shares the timeline of events — from a routine hospital visit to a devastating early morning phone call — and the shocking details that followed. The family alleges there was no doctor physically present in the ICU overnight, communication failures, and critical delays in care. An attorney representing the family breaks down what investigators found and why a lawsuit has been filed, raising larger questions about hospital staffing, telehealth in critical care, and patient rights. This conversation is difficult — but it raises questions every family should hear. Hosted by Simplecast, an AdsWizz company.
