A 'larger than life' mum tragically took her own life on Christmas Day leaving behind her nine-year-old son as her heartbroken family have paid tribute to their 'beloved' daughter.
She was due to celebrate her 29th birthday the following day and had suffered with 'mental health issues for many years' according to her mother, Cheryl Carter.Cheryl, who is now raising money for her grandson Kai to put into a trust fund when he is 18, has urged anyone who is struggling to reach out.
"Myself and my family are totally overwhelmed by the generosity of people, especially with times being so difficult for most financially, with rising living costs and of course Christmas. However people still did donate, which has restored my faith in human nature.
