Double tragedy

The family who lost 38-year old Jacqueline Fleming to swineflu yesterday now also have to come to terms with the loss of her child. Jack, who was born 11 weeks premature on June 1st, died in the special care baby unit at the same hospital in Paisley where his mother passed away on Sunday.

  2. So very sad Guido. To lose the mother at such a young age was bad enough. The baby would have been part of her and a ray of hope for the future. My thoughts are with the family.
