THE parents of six-year-old Chloe Buckley have stressed that the medical care given to their daughter - who tragically died of swine flu - was ‘at all times appropriate'.

In a short statement following her death yesterday, they said “We are obviously very distressed at the loss of our fun loving baby girl. Nothing can replace her in our lives.

"We are satisfied that the medical care Chloe received at all times was appropriate, and are disappointed with the stories that have been printed that suggest otherwise.

"We have nothing further to say, and again request that we are left to grieve in private.”

The results of the post mortem are expected within the next few days and a statement will be released when the outcome is known.
