A mum-of-two whose son was killed on a family holiday in Swansea 10 years ago has said she will 'never get over' losing him. Leah Hunt's 15-year-old son Sam died after he fell into the sea after being hit by a large wave at Blue Pool corner near Llangennith, Gower.
Sam, from Birkenhead in Merseyside, was with his older brother Lewis at the time, the 21-year-old having fought bravely to rescue him. Sadly, Sam was later pronounced dead at the hospital after both brothers were winched out of the water by teams from the RNLI.
Mum Leah, who works for the British Transport Police, told the Liverpool Echo that she will be forever grateful to those who rescued Lewis, and to Lewis for being there so 'Sam wasn't alone' in his final moments. She said: "It was three minutes past midnight when the police knocked at my door to tell me we'd lost Sam. I was just numb, I'll never get over it.
