A woman was shocked to find maggots crawling on her mother's face in a hospital's intensive care unit. Nyree Ellison Anjos alerted staff at Gloucestershire Royal Hospital when she saw the larvae wriggling near a feeding tube attached to her mother's nose.

Christine Ellison died two days later, but the family is satisfied the maggot incident had no bearing.

The hospital has apologised to the family saying it was "an isolated and rare occurrence."

Mrs Ellison Anjos, from Robinswood in Gloucester, said the incident happened on a hot day in July.

"We saw there was a fly flying around there. Everybody was making it go away even the staff in the hospital," she said.

"The next day I went there and there was this yellow thing by her tube and I thought that didn't look right. She kept touching her nose and fiddling and we could see it was bothering her.

"I had a close look and could see little maggots moving in there."
That's nearly as bad as the Van Damme film I've just watched.

That's where there's thunder... and the wind shouts back.

Maggots are actually good. They eat dead flesh and help reduce infections.

And they make an excellent paté for those last-minute holiday guests.
