I don't know what to do I can't believe you are gone from me. I can't believe they couldn't save you, I can't believe this happened. I didn't even get to tell you how much I love you." The mum added: "Our sweet funny boy with a cheeky smile that could make anyone's heart full. The smile that we can't see again. Can't hold him. Can't cuddle him. Can't hear him. Can't have him sleeping in my bed tonight. But I can try to give him the best and most comfortable burial. [...] Please if anyone can help us to make his burial as beautiful as he was please I will be so grateful. Everyone is devastated, but that word doesn't feel like enough to explain how we are all feeling."
