BBM Yes my thoughts too that I personally think its significant. That is so upsetting to read. JMOI was quite struck by something in the timeline, and that is that it was Father's Day when LL came on shift, on the evening of 21st June 2015.
LL is a daughter. I wonder if she spent that Father's Day celebrating her own father.
Baby D was a daughter. Baby D's dad spent most of that Father's Day in the neonatal unit, with his new baby daughter.
LL seemed to particularly notice D's father. She texted "...Parents absolutely devastated, dad screaming. Andrew Brunton and Liz Newby said it will probably be investigated. Dad is beside himself. ...sometimes I think how is it such sick babies get through and others die so suddenly and unexpectedly. Guess it’s how it’s meant to be. ...there’s a reason for everything."
LL searched for D's father on Facebook 4 months later, in Oct 2015.
It seems particularly cruel for a father to be celebrating the gift of his new daughter on Father's Day, and to be woken in shock in the night and have that joy stripped away from him in under 30 minutes.
This was LL's text after baby A's death - "I just don't know how I'm going to feel seeing parents. Dad was on the floor crying saying ''please don't take our baby away'' when we took him to the mortuary."
Is it significant I wonder.
