A slimmer lost 11 stone after her dead son came to her in a dream to tell her to change her ways.
Alison White, 50, was housebound and a size 30 when she received the warning in her sleep. She saw her son Thomas, who died aged seven after being hit by a car, standing by his gravestone, which had her name on it.
Alison said her little boy told her: “I love you but if you don’t do something, you are going to end up like me.”
