Jamie Williams had always known that he had experienced a traumatic start to life. At just four months old his mother Susan Carter died suddenly aged 27 and he was placed into the care system. But, while he knew his mother died when he was a child, it wasn't until 30 years later did he find out about the twist of fate that saved his life as she sadly lost hers.
Jamie, now 31 years old from Cymmer in the Afan Valley, had long wondered about his mother's death and what had happened, but it wasn't until he was handed an old newspaper copy found in an aunt's house this week was he able to piece some details of his early life together.
Over 30-years-on from the tragedy he has now found out that Susan died at her home in Llangwm, Penplas, Swansea in January 1992, with baby Jamie by her side. Jamie was only found three days later when neighbours called police after they became suspicious of teenagers trying to break in at the home and because people could hear crying coming from the property.
