An obstetrician held in the Sunday stabbing death of her 13-year-old son resigned recently from her job at a Minnesota hospital, where one colleague had worried about her mental well-being.

Donna Anderson, 48, worked for HealthPartners at Regions Hospital in St. Paul, where a co-worker described her as devoted to her patients and loving toward her son.

But Dr. Robert Hildebrandt also said she had appeared troubled during the last six months.

Anderson was being held Monday in Stephen Burns’ slaying at the Burlingame home of her ex-husband, Frank Burns.
