Afterwards, she dialed 911 and told the operator that Hannah fell real bad yesterday but that shed thought the youngster had recovered fine from the accident.

She then claimed that Hannah had taken an unexpected turn for the worse, and that all of a sudden she just passed out.

Hannahs father Jason can also be heard in the background trying to revive the youngster, saying Hannah breathe. Breathe for daddy.
