My son was taken tragically from me on 17th April 2004 he was one of five, 2 older brothers and 2
youger sisters Darren,Christopher Emma and Tamsyn.He was loved and well liked by everyone that knew
him and a very popular member of staff at Argos where he worked ,everyone used to comment on how
helpful and polite he was .He had two little nephews that he adored and they in turn adored him in
fact one of them are named after him and he was also his godfather,he was so proud that day.Matthew
suffered with asthma from when he was 19 and it was an asthma attack that tragically took him from
us ,although I am 99.9% sure that had his girlfriend taken his inhaler to him when he beckoned her
at the window, that I would still have him today. She didn't even have the decency to ring me and
tell me, always remember how she looked, so sheepish when i got to the hospital with her red
bloodshot eyes couldn't even look at me . Only kept in touch til we got the post mortem results then
seen her briefly at the funeral where she didn't acknowledge anyone .She went around telling people
that she was pregnant but when my daughter offered to go to the drs with her declined ,she lied
from day one and although i didn't like her tried for Matt's sake ,he had to go to hospital about
three weeks before he died as he had a burn on his arm which he said he had burnt on her hair
straighteners well that was his version but I have my own thoughts on it.when we got given his
mobile phone at the hospital my daughter and daughter-in-law was looking through it for friends
numbers there was txts on it that thay tried keeping from me like "get my bag it's in the lounge
and jump to it"so now you will understand why I feel so bitter and if i still had him then he could
have had a little niece to dote on as well ,as his youngest sister had a little girl Emily 15
months ago .The sad thing was that we never got to say goodbye.Matthew just to let you know that I
am so proud of you and will love you forever, we know that you are looking after our little Rebekah
for us Love you always and forever Your heartbroken Mumxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx
