The family of a teenage girl who starved to death after doctors failed to give her a life-saving drip have received a five-figure pay-out, after health chiefs were found guilty of 'gross failings'.

Stephanie Bell, 19, died after doctors sent her home instead of giving her vital nutrients which would have saved her life.

The teenager's weight plummeted to six-and-a-half stone following an operation after her bowel became blocked which left her unable to digest food.
