A mother-of-five died less than two weeks after being struck in the head with a cup in hospital by a fellow patient as she slept - due to her SNORING. Eileen Bunting, 64, was hit on the head by the disgruntled fellow female patient in the early hours of the morning on March 22. Shocking photographs show a large wound on Eileen's head which needed 14 stitches. Her son Mark, 46, believes the attack at Humberside Royal Infirmary was premeditated due to his mother's loud snoring. The patient - who had shown "no prior indication of violent tendencies or intentions" according to the hospital - allegedly tied the door handle to the room together with a blanket.
