Pneumonia sparked death of baby Published: 10:57 Thursday 19 January 2006 A PREMATURE baby who died 13 days after being born was suffering from pneumonia, an inquest heard. Kirsti Williams was rushed to Doncaster Royal Infirmary after she stopped breathing on July 6 last year. Attempts to resuscitate her failed. Dr Marta Cohen, a consultant at Sheffield Children's Hospital who carried out a post mortem examination, said: "Although Kirsti had been born prematurely, she was well developed and well nourished, and without any external or internal deficiencies. "But her lungs were congested and they were acutely inflamed, which are signs of pneumonia." Dr Cohen also found the baby was suffering a potentially fatal heart condition, unrelated to her death. Toxicology tests found no untoward substances in Kirsti's body. "The cause of death was pneumonia, which could have started before she was born and still in the womb," Dr Cohen said. Doncaster Coroner Stanley Hooper told Kirsti's mum Kay Ashcroft, of Mill Lane, Armthorpe: "I doubt anyone, apart from those who have experienced the death of a baby like this, can fully appreciate the feelings of the parents." Recording a verdict of death by natural causes, Mr Hooper added: "Internal examinations showed something which did not play a part in her death - her heart condition.

She was my identical twin sister and we miss and love her so much rest in peace little sister but know this I will avenge you
