A MOTHER faces a second grilling when the inquest into the death of her three-month-old son resumes today.
Donna Hanson, of Church Street, Accrington, spent two tearful hours answering questions about son Toby Woods' death last Monday.
The child died on September 28, 1998, at Blackburn Royal Infirmary after he stopped breathing while at home in Pendle Street, Accrington.
He had spent several weeks in hospital and medical staff became suspicious Miss Hanson may have been harming him.
She was arrested after his death on suspicion of murdering Toby and his elder brother Ashley, who died in December 1998 aged 10 months.
It was only last year Miss Hanson was told she would face no charges for the deaths, a decision which enabled Toby's inquest to take place.
Last week, in front a jury, it was revealed that nurses had failed to flag up witnessing some of seizures Toby's mum said he was suffering, prompting suspicion that he was being abused.
Coroner Michael Singleton told the jury on Friday afternoon he planned to recall Miss Hanson to answer questions which have come to light as a result of evidence given over the week.
