When she fell ill in Manchester she was taken to St Mary's where she recieved care.

It's there she claims she was "handed her unborn baby in a box in a plastic bag"

"I just couldn't believe my expirience. I've never been so shocked. I've only just started coming to terms with it"

She said: "It was still my child, I finished the first trimester, this wasn't just a shock I was pregnant"

"I will never have a happy pregancy, I will always be on eggshells because it won't be a happy expirience for me now"

"The one of the worst things a woman can go through is losing a child"

In a statement St Mary's Hospital in Manchester said
