'Arthur was face down on the floor'
Ms Prior asks about the photo she sent to Hughes at 2.15pm which showed Arthur sitting in the hallway.
Tustin: "When we came back downstairs he had been standing then lying on the floor. Then basically he just sat up against the door. He was sitting on the floor because he had got no strength inside of him."
Ms Prior asks what she could see.
Tustin: "Arthur was face down on the floor on the carpet as if he was lying on his stomach."
She adds his legs and body were straight but cannot recall how his arms were.

'I noticed a big lump on his head'
Ms Prior asks what she did next.
Tustin: "I picked him up. I struggled to pick him up. Put arms underneath his armpit. I put him on the stairs and I noticed a big lump on his head. Really big it was swollen."
Tustin is crying at this point.
She adds: "I picked him up put him on the step. I thought he had knocked himself out. I checked he had a pulse. He did. He was breathing.
"His eyes started rolling. I didn't know what to do I was running in and out. I didn't know where to put him. I thought he knocked himself out and he would come around."
