A heartbreaking inquest has revealed the tragic story of Anastasia Darlison, formerly known as Stacey Hyde, who died at the age of 32 in a seaside village in Cornwall. Darlison had spent five years in prison for a murder she claimed was in self-defense, only to be later cleared and released.
After her release, Darlison struggled to cope with life outside prison, falling prey to abuse and addiction. She had a history of mental health issues, including PTSD, bulimia nervosa, and ADHD, and had been diagnosed with hepatitis C and kidney failure. Despite her efforts to start anew in Cornwall, she found it challenging to overcome her past traumas.
The inquest heard that Darlison's death was caused by complications related to her bulimia nervosa. She had been hospitalized several times in the year leading up to her death due to electrolyte imbalances caused by her condition. On the day of her death, she was admitted to the Royal Cornwall Hospital after 48 hours of vomiting, but sadly could not be revived.
Darlison's aunt, Julie Hyde, paid tribute to her niece, describing her as "the sweetest, kindest, most generous and funniest person I knew." She said that Darlison was looking forward to visiting her in Greece and starting a new chapter in her life.
The senior coroner, Andrew Cox, concluded that Darlison's death was due to natural causes, noting that she had been a young woman who had faced incredible challenges in her life. Despite her struggles, Darlison's story serves as a reminder of the importance of supporting those who have experienced trauma and providing them with the resources they need to heal and rebuild their lives.
