Dad found dead at home days after receiving news about his mum's health

A dad was found dead at home just days after discovering his mum was terminally ill.

Robert Courtney had been out with his brother Craig, on Tuesday, November 29 last year, two days before his death. His family said he spent much of the following day, on Wednesday, in bed after saying he didn't feel well.

Craig confirmed that the 35-year-old would normally sleep for most of the day after a night out. In a statement he said: "He would normally sleep it off and wake up in the morning and say he'll never do it again."
