Fantastic Mum and best friend we ever will have what an inspiration my mum was to everyone that knew her......
Our mum passed away on the 8th june 2007 aged 46 mum after long battle of cancer.

This is how it all started : Mum was taken ill on 25 May 2004 after complaining for 2 yrs before with same pains every month in and out of hospital for 24 months and all we got is she had IBS but while i was pregnant with my little boy on the 25th of may we got told the worst news anyone could ever tell her kids cause thats what we lived for our mum and mum lived for us we are so close and we never thought we could of taken what the doc told us we got told she had so many months left to live then she suprised us all and fought the cancer for 3 yrs until the end she still fought hard but on the 8th June lost the battle ....
Mum was very close to her brother Scott and all the rest of the Brothers and Sisters but Scott the closest kept the promise he made to mum and was for him to stay strong for her kids and keep the rest of the family in line but make sure her kids come first.
My mum fought very long time she kept goin cause she lived for her Kids and Granson she was FANTASTIC mum and Gran to Nicholas her baby boy ... Mum had a lot of friends she touched a lot of hearts as she was that type of person she would always make sure everyone was ok she was best friends with Mo , Ellen,Wilma & Marie but marie passed away 14th may 2006 so now part of that friendship is joined again.Also before mum starting to losing the battle and become poorly she contacted a long lost friend that was very dear to her and this is Debbie who had promised mum to keep in touch and we will.
