Letby messages a doctor at 10.48pm: 'Do I need to be worried about what Dr Gibbs was asking?'
Response: 'No.
'He was asking to make sure that normal procedures were being carried out'
'What exactly did he ask?'
Letby replies Dr Gibbs had been asking colleague Mary Griffiths who was present in the room (when Child Q had collapsed) and how quickly someone had gone to him because Lucy Letby had not been there.
The response: 'All he was doing was checking there was not a delay and that a room had been left empty...there is nothing to worry about'.
The doctor adds: 'You can't be with two babies in different nurseries at the same time, let alone predict when they're going to crash'.
Letby: 'I know, and I didn't leave them alone'.
The response: Nobody has accused you of neglecting a baby or causing a deterioration'.
Letby responds she wonders if, following the deaths of two babies, she is doing well enough.
The doctor replies he would be willing to provide a statement to back Letby up in any event.
He adds: 'It's why I am so happy to work with you. You don't flap, you give perfectly sensible sugfgestions...
'No more doubt - it's not you, it's the babies.'
Letby adds: 'So relieved that it's you who has been there throughout.'
