When Steph and Lee Cummings welcomed their newborn son into the world, they felt their dreams had come true. But that joy quickly turned into a terrifying ordeal for the Newcastle family.
Just days later, Steph, from West Denton Park, began to experience delusions. She became so confused she couldn't even remember giving birth to her son.
After husband Lee called the crisis team for help, teaching assistant Steph was diagnosed with postnatal psychosis. She was admitted to St George's Park hospital in Morpeth on November 22, 2021.
