Heartbroken mum Vicki Roberts, 42, is grappling with the loss of her vibrant 24-year-old daughter, Chloe, who tragically passed away due to a sudden brain aneurysm. Chloe, a mum herself, had been feeling under the weather, initially suspecting she just needed new glasses as she experienced headaches. No one could have predicted the heartache that was to follow.
Chloe’s world turned unexpectedly when she collapsed at home. Vicki, who was looking after Chloe’s four-year-old daughter Nancy, received the call no parent ever wants. Rushing to the scene where emergency services worked tirelessly, hope was fleeting. Despite paramedics reviving Chloe, she never regained consciousness.
The scanners revealed Chloe suffered a brain aneurysm, and there was nothing doctors could do. Vicki faced the heart-wrenching task of explaining to little Nancy that her mummy was never coming home. The family remembers Chloe as a beacon of joy—her smile lighting up any room. Chloe’s love for life was infectious and her kind heart touched everyone she met.
In remembrance, they played a cherished recording of Chloe singing Adele at her funeral, celebrating the joy she brought into the lives of her friends and family. Chloe was embarking on a new chapter, having just started a new relationship. She was happy and full of promise—gone too soon.
Now Vicki holds onto memories and the echoes of Chloe’s laughter that fill their home. Nancy is the spitting image of her mum, keeping Chloe’s spirit alive. Vicki shares, “Life’s too quiet without her. I still wait for her ring, knowing it’ll never come. She was my bubbly girl with a heart of gold.”
