She stated: 'It's really frightening to believe that somebody with definitely zero evidence can paint a photo like that which influences someone being detained and secured while their child depends on a medical facility bed, waiting for significant surgical treatment.'
She added: 'It seemed like persecution, one of those authorities states that individuals discuss.
'Honestly, I don't think I can ever forgive the individuals accountable, although we've striven to ignore it, and them, as rapidly as possible.'
Nevertheless, while the social services performed their examination, she said, the family needed to reside in accommodation where other accountable grownups existed.
She added: 'This was including insult to serious injury and bearing in mind my progressive decrease in health generally, I was really beginning to anguish.'
It wasn't the very first time Adam Thomas had been examined for supposed violence. In 2016, he was charged with attacking Hannah in a domestic argument, and daunting a witness.
But when the case pertained to trial, it collapsed, and he was discovered not guilty of typical attack and witness intimidation during a hearing at Kingston Crown Court. The court heard that three prosecution witnesses were not available and that the case might not continue.
