A seriously ill man in West Sussex facing home repossession within weeks seeks a delay while his family pursues a long‑running medical negligence claim against University Hospitals Sussex NHS Trust. Paul Robinson’s home was used to secure a business loan, and debt accrued after he became incapacitated by cancer, sepsis and respiratory failure. His family fears that being forced to move would endanger his health, citing letters from surgeons warning of potentially life‑threatening consequences. The MP for Worthing West has urged the NHS to resolve the case promptly, while lenders say the repossession follows a full judicial process. The trust says it is committed to reaching a fair resolution and has invited the family to a formal meeting to progress the claim.
