It is every parent's worst nightmare, a routine trip to the doctor which ends up with your child being taken away from you - forever.
Jill McCartan's daughter Alyssa was just a few weeks old in early 2010 when her mother noticed a swelling on her arm. Concerned, Jill took her to her GP who said that it appeared the baby had a tiny fracture on her arm.
While the doctor said the baby didn't seem to be in any pain, she referred her just in case to the hospital for X-rays.
Jill fled to Spain to have her son Loiq to prevent social services from taking her second baby
To Jill's shock and horror, the hospital found three more fractures, one on each leg and one on her rib. Social workers were called in and 10-week old Alyssa was taken into care, even though Jill's mother Debbie had offered to look after her.
After a legal process, the Family Court ordered that baby Alyssa was to be adopted, meaning that her family cannot see her again until she is 18.
