Tammy-jo was my little sister , from a very young age tammy knew what she wanted from life , she was a very clever little girl at school , an ideal pupil they used to call her , she left school went to college and eventually univercity , leaving with brilliant grades , in that time she had a little girl called Morgan who she thought the word of , Tammy had a year out from her education to look after morgan then she was back to university , Tammy would never give up if she wanted something in life she would work hard to get it , and she did , she got her law degree , we were all so proud of her ,she would work so hard to achieve things in life , she also had her own buisness called the ‘ iris rose boutique ‘ which was in london , even got herself into the OK mag with rosie webster as a model for her clothes that she sold in her shop , it was lovely my little sister growing up , makeing us all so proud ,one of many buisness ventures of hers was to sell top end of the market property in LONDON where she met so many people . Tammy would make a room light up with her SMILE and make heads turn wherever she went , in her short life tammy had travelled to many countries where she made so many friends , and her next venture was to travel around the world with her daughter morgan , but she didnt. That dream was never to be. I got a telephone call to say Tammy was not very well , so i got on a train and went to london , the next day Tammy was in PORTSMOUTH with her family, she was admitted to hospital because she started fitting and was in so much pain , Tammy kept saying ‘ IM FINE . but Tammy wasnt fine the headaches went on for another week . on Friday 12th November 2010 at midnight i called an ambulance because she couldnt stand the pain no more, we got in the ambulanse and she wished me a happy birthday ,i will never forget that day as long as i live because that was the last time i saw my little sister awake , my birthday . Next morning i went to the hospital and they told us that tammy was going to be transfered to southampton neuro unit for test to see if she had a brain tumour, i sat there all day with her holding her hand saying come on wake up , at 6pm the nurse come and told me that she was leaving in the morning and i could go with her in the ambulance ,all the family were at the hospital mum dad morgan her daughter our brothers Che, Adam my children and my husband Kev ,my poor dad was there waiting to go see Tammy after his appointment at the hospital because he was also so ill he had CANCER . so i popped home for some clothes for the morning , never even got the clothes , instead i got a phone call from the nurse to say to get to the hospital as quickly as you can , so i did , to find all the family around Tammys bed crying , never forget the words i heard as i walked towards them , it was my dad saying ‘ NOT MY LITTLE GIRL , as i got to the bed i cuddled her in my arms i couldnt believe that she had died. from that moment i was numb , my little sister was gone , so young only 30years old with all her life ahead of her , the most beautiful girl in the world , I miss her so much , i am writting this with the biggest lump in my throat , its SO hard , as the months go on it sill seems like yesturday . times are still so hard we all know now that our dad is terminal and that he may only live a short while, so our pain i dont think will ever go away that is why we are doing all we can for BRAIN TUMOUR UK ,also we live in hope that one day there will be a CURE, and that Tammy will always be remembered by all , she was so special to us, to a lot of people all around the globe , her beautiful smile will never ever be out of our minds , but there is just one thing i keep asking myself is WHY?.................
