Sophie Waller underwent an operation to remove her milk teeth after she stopped eating or speaking because of pain in one of them.
However the inquest was told that after she was discharged she continued to refuse to eat solid food.
On November 28 Mrs Waller said the hospital refused to take Sophie back and after speaking to Dr Davison she was advised to contact her GP who prescribed "build up drinks" over the phone but did not see and examine Sophie.
very sad. I dont understand how something like this happens.. The doctors, hospital and the parents all bear some responsibility for this.
