A "perfect" mum who will "live on forever through her children" died after collapsing at home.
Paula Redfern, from Litherland, died on Thursday, October 13 despite the best efforts from her husband Tony and paramedics. The 38-year-old was diagnosed with type 1 diabetes at the age of 18 and suffered numerous complications over the years directly linked to the chronic disease.
In the last two to three years Paula’s kidney function dramatically deteriorated due to diabetic kidney failure. She was on the transplant list for a double transplant, for both kidney and pancreas.
