'My six-year-old daughter died unexpectedly in her sleep, hours after I tucked her into bed'

David Hutton will never forget the last time he tucked his daughter into bed. Little Isla and her dad had had a busy day shopping, and she was worn out by the day.

But when David tucked his 6-year-old daughter into bed that night he knew instinctively something wasn't right. “She climbed into bed but wouldn’t settle down. It was just desperation because I knew something wasn’t right,” he said.

Isla passed away on October 8, 2022 and as of yet her cause of death isn't clear. It’s believed she may have gone into cardiac arrest or suffered a seizure due to a pre-existing condition.
