Family's tribute to son after Devil's Pulpit accident

Emergency services recovered Marwan Sulaiman Al Balushi's body from the Devil's Pulpit spot at around 1:30pm on Wednesday, May 21. Marwan, 21, who was studying data science and was set to graduate in 2027, had travelled to the gorge with a group of friends.

One of his friends reportedly jumped in to try and save him, but was unsuccessful—barely escaping with his own life. In a deeply emotional tribute, Marwan's family described him as 'cheerful and intelligent', someone who had left an 'unforgettable impact' on their lives. They shared with the Glasgow Times: 'We don't know how long it will take to learn how to live with this loss." Tragically, Marwan was just days away from flying home to visit his family. (Image: Supplied) His father, Suliman Ali Albalushi, shared that the day before the incident, Marwan had called to confirm his travel plans. He said: "He called to tell me about his flight home, scheduled for May 26, 2025. "He told his mother too, asking her to prepare his bed and excitedly spoke with her about Eid plans. "Little did he know, may God have mercy on him, that the upcoming Eid would be without him, and that we would wait for his return in vain." A gifted student, Marwan had shown exceptional promise in mathematics and science. His family proudly recalled his academic achievements, including ranking first in his class and seventh in the entire governorate during his final school year. They said: 'He excelled academically in mathematics and science, something rare in our family." In the wake of the tragedy, the family is also raising serious concerns about safety at the Devil's Pulpit, where they say a lack of barriers, signage, and clear warnings gave visitors a 'false sense of safety.' They believe the water level in the gorge rose suddenly, trapping four other students during the incident. While they screamed for help, two other group members, along with passersby, rushed to alert emergency services. According to the family, it took emergency responders approximately an hour to arrive, during which time the trapped students were left "clinging to life" in the fast-moving current.

"Emergency services, including the Scottish Fire and Rescue Service, a mountain rescue team, and the ambulance service attended, and the body of a man was recovered from the water at the Devil's Pulpit. "He was pronounced dead at the scene. "There are no suspicious circumstances, and a report will be submitted to the Procurator Fiscal." Marwan's father said his son's death was 'an irreplaceable tragedy to all who knew him, and a pain beyond words for those who witnessed it."

Pippa White's death in NSW hospital was preventable and ‘system failed her', medical experts tell inquest

The septic shock death of a two-year-old girl in a regional New South Wales hospital was preventable, senior medical experts told an inquest. Pippa Mae White died on 13 June 2022, two months before her third birthday, after doctors at the hospitals in Cowra and Orange wrongly assumed she had an acute viral illness rather than the serious bacterial infection that killed her. Giving evidence on Wednesday at the coronial inquest into her death, a 'conclave of experts' who weren't involved in Pippa's treatment said she should have been checked and treated for potential sepsis much earlier than she was. The NSW deputy state coroner Joan Baptie is examining whether Pippa's death was preventable and whether she received appropriate care in Cowra and Orange, and from the Newborn and Paediatric Emergency Transport Service team. The inquest previously heard that Pippa presented to Cowra hospital about 2pm on 12 June 2022 with a fever, vomiting, and a heart rate of 171 beats per minute, considered in the 'red zone' for sepsis. She did not have a blood test until nearly 4am on 13 June, after she was transferred to Orange, which revealed she had a serious infection. She was administered antibiotics and given a chest X-ray, which showed she had pneumonia that had caused a 'complete whiteout' of her left lung. She suffered two cardiac arrests and died just after 1pm. Five of the seven medical experts who submitted a joint report to the inquest gave oral evidence on Wednesday: Prof Simon Craig, Prof John Raftos, Prof Warwick Butt, Prof Adam Irwin and Associate Prof Phillip Braslins, along with GP Robert Morton. While there was some disagreement on when the paediatric sepsis pathway should have been activated for Pippa, all the doctors agreed investigations into possible sepsis – including blood tests – should have been started much sooner than they were. The experts agreed medical staff became 'anchored' on the wrong diagnosis of a viral illness. They stressed the importance making 'serial observations' of vital signs heart rate and oxygen saturation more frequently than was done in Pippa's case. The inquest was previously shown a video of Pippa in the Cowra emergency department making a 'grunting' noise while breathing, which the doctors on Wednesday said would have been identifiable with a stethoscope. Raftos said Pippa was already a 'very sick' and 'lethargic' child when she was taken to Cowra and she needed a rapid response. He said if medical staff in Cowra didn't have the capacity to treat Pippa right away, as the inquest previously heard, they should have arranged for an ambulance to take her to Orange, or for her mother, Annah, to drive her there. Raftos said the alternative was 'doing nothing, which is what they did'. Craig said the 'make or break' point when 'things went absolutely wrong' was at 1am on 13 June when there were 'delays in escalation' at Orange hospital despite Pippa having become 'critically ill'. The junior doctor in charge of looking after Pippa in Orange, Dr Christopher Morris, last year cried in the witness box as he gave evidence to the inquest and said he wished he had called a rapid response earlier in the night. The experts on Wednesday said the senior paediatrician on-call the night Pippa was admitted, Prof Adam Buckmaster, should have assessed her that evening. The inquest previously heard he didn't attend the hospital until the morning of 13 June. Most of the experts agreed Pippa should have had her blood tested and been administered antibiotics around 9pm on 12 June after arriving at the hospital. 'She should have been on the [sepsis pathway], she should have had an IV [intravenous drip] inserted, she should have had bloods done, and she should have had antibiotics given. I think it's very clear,' Butt said. 'I believe the death was preventable, and that means the system failed her,' Butt said. The inquest continues, with a final block of hearings expected later this year.
