Raisin up the nose gave my wee girl infection

Kirsty slams medics who dismissed three-year-old's agony as a virus

DOCTORS treating a toddler who was rushed to hospital with signs of infection discovered that a raisin had been stuck in her nose for two months.

Peyton Handley, three, first became unwell in March and was suffering from pain in her face that left her in tears.

The youngster's parents, Kirsty, 29, and Craig, 35, took their daughter to their GP on a number of occasions, but claim medics failed to find a cause for her symptoms.

Kirsty, from Cumbernauld, told the Record: "We are angry because we asked the doctors to check for a C blockage several times but we were just fobbed off every time. It was as if they couldn't be bothered with us being there.
