A mother has told how hospital staff looked at her baby's bruises and thought he was being abused - only to then discover the devastating reason behind them. Beth Reilly repeatedly sought medical help for her son Bailey after he became unwell.
She took the now one-year-old to hospital six times in a week only to be told he was told he was fine. But she finally got the answer after the tot became covered in bruises and he was sent back by the family GP, reports the Liverpool Echo.
Beth convinced nurses to do blood tests. It was only then that it was found he had acute lymphoblastic leukaemia.
