So yeah, Bradley was in good spirits.

He was fitted with his IV.

He was taken to his hospital room and he was getting on quite well.

However, in the middle of his first night at the hospital, he complained to the nurses that his IV was hurting him.

And so nurse Beverly Allitt went to his room to go and sort it out.

But while she was there,

Bradley collapsed.

Apparently he just slumped forward in his bed, went completely unconscious, stopped breathing, and his heart just stopped.

So the team rushed in to come and resuscitate Bradley, and they were doing everything that they possibly could, but nothing was really working.

And so they made the decision to up the doses to adult doses.

Bear in mind, this is a five-year-old boy.

So this can be quite dangerous, but when nothing else is working, I suppose anything beats losing him.

They used the defibrillator on him like seven or eight times, which I don't think you're supposed to do on a five-year-old, but like I said, anything beats losing him.

They were upping all his different medications and stuff.

And finally, they resuscitated him.

He was breathing again.

Because this attack had been so sudden, literally came out of nowhere, Grantham Hospital decided to do some tests on Bradley.

They took a blood sample, and again, they found those insanely high insulin levels that the Nottingham Hospital had found in another child.

But the frustrating part about this is because Bradley's blood test had been done by Grantham Hospital and Paul Crampton's blood test, the one before, had been done by Nottingham Hospital,

they didn't connect the two.
