Help us give our mum the send off she deserves

Hello my names Zerah,

 

I am here today to ask on the behalf of myself and my sisters, for your help to give our mum the send off she truly deserves.

 

our mum, was the most giving, kind & compassionate person you could ever meet, she never wanted for anything and she always put herself second. Nothing was ever too much trouble for her and she truly would do anything for anyone.

 

For those of you that don’t know our mum Sheenagh Matthew’s sadly passed away on the 22nd of March 2022, this comes after our mum suffered a cardiac arrest on the 28th of February, due to a clot in a artery in her heart, she spent a week in a coma and the doctors weren’t hopeful she would wake up and if she did they were concerned she may be brain dead, but as she would always say “I’ll live forever” she beat all the odds, woke up and fought on. She had made incredible progress and was later discharged to another “trust”.

It has been no secret that our mum has suffered considerably with her mental health over the years. However, once she was transferred to the new trust, her needs were not met which unfortunately led to her complaints of chest pain being ignored for 4 days. It’s was only when mum had  a further heart attack that they took action and transferred her back to Royal Papworth for further treatment.

Unfortunately, despite the best efforts of the team at Papworth, the damage the second heart attack did caused mums organs to fail.

 

we have never been a family to ask for anything, but if you can help us to give our mum the send off she truly deserves we would all be so grateful.

 

sincerely

Zerah, Marley, Amber & Kachiri
