An 'affectionate and bubbly' little boy died after contracting Strep A. Lucas Charles Hurst, six, tragically passed away on July 17 last year.
His mother Rachel Lee had taken him to their GP, and A&E, two days prior after he developed a cough and a fever. He was diagnosed, an inquest in Manchester heard, with a viral infection and was sent home in the early hours.
Lucas was rushed back to Wythenshawe Hospital the following day having become 'profoundly unwell'. Sadly, he went into cardiac arrest and couldn't be resuscitated.
