Devastated mum shares dying son's heartbreaking last words to 'look after his kids'

A distraught mum has revealed the heartbreaking last words her dying son made and her vow to look after his two children.

Connor Pleasance, 26, was taken into hospital after starting to feel ill in June. He was later diagnosed with a ruptured bladder. While in hospital he also caught pneumonia. Connor was eventually able to return back to his home to Barnsley, South Yorkshire, but he fell ill again soon after.

Described by his mum as young and fit, Connor was placed in a coma after complications caused by the ruptured bladder. He died in the early hours of Sunday, August 14 after spending three weeks on life support.
