Suspected poisoning victim had moved to Newcastle to start 'new chapter' in life Suspicious death: Gwen Fowler was rushed to hospital with high doses of insulin in her blood. An elderly woman who died in a suspected poisoning at a Newcastle aged-care facility had moved to the Hunter area to "'start an exciting new chapter in my life." Gwen Fowler, 83, was rushed to John Hunter Hospital two weeks ago with high doses of insulin in her blood and died shortly after being admitted. Another patient, Ryan Kelly, 80, died overnight on Tuesday after exhibiting similar symptoms. Both were residents of the SummitCare Wallsend facility, Sugarloaf Gardens, and police have confirmed that multiple deaths at the same suburban Newcastle aged-care facility were being treated as suspicious. Another woman, aged 91, has been discharged from hospital after recovering from high insulin levels. Tests revealed that all three had been injected with high doses of insulin, dramatically reducing their blood sugar levels and causing them to become critically ill. In 2006, Mrs Fowler wrote on a reunion website for Orara High School in Coffs Harbour, where she used to work, that her husband had died the previous year. She had "stayed at home in Coffs [Harbour] since then, remaining active with walking and Probus." "I am about to start a new exciting chapter in my life, moving to Newcastle to be neared [sic] to my daughters, in a small unit," she wrote. Mrs Fowler wrote that she worked at Orara High School as a home science kitchen assistant. "This was my first 'real job' after helping on the banana plantation for many years," she wrote. She said she retired in 1989, and travelled around Australia and to Europe with her husband Len. "As retirees we joined Probus Club, and a walking group," she wrote. Detectives are poised to reinvestigate more deaths at the nursing home amid fears there are other victims of the suspected poisoning. Strike Force Correa investigators were deciding how they would begin the mammoth task of delving into older incidents to rule out links. Fairfax Media revealed on Wednesday that homicide squad detectives had joined Newcastle City investigators to form the strike force after John Hunter Hospital staff identified links between the three cases. The trio had been presented to the hospital on October 18 and 19, and the alarm was raised when it was discovered they had similar symptoms and were in the same ward of the same facility. Newcastle City Local Area commander Superintendent John Gralton confirmed police were treating the two deaths as "suspicious until determined otherwise." Mr Gralton said he could not give details of the investigation, which was still in its infancy. "We are working with the facility manager in relation to the security of the facility and we have no immediate concerns," he said. Fairfax Media understands that the strike force will now have to delve back into the files of other dead patients to rule them out of the investigation. "We are still awaiting the formal evaluation of medical evidence to determine the circumstances leading up to the deaths and any involvement of other parties," he said. The presence of any criminal intent is still being determined. The evaluation of medical evidence will assist in this regard. Newcastle Herald, with Megan Levy
