Scots mum's 'agony' as premature baby daughter dies at 31 days old from bowel condition

A Scots mum has spoken of her heartache at losing her newborn baby daughter, as her son prepares to run a mini-marathon as a tribute.

Heather Ellis, 32, and partner David Stenhouse from Musselburgh, East Lothian tragically lost their daughter Lindsay at just 31 days old after she was diagnosed with Necrotising enterocolitis (NEC). Lindsay was born 12 weeks premature on August 11, 2022 and died on September 4 at the Royal Infirmary of Edinburgh.

Describing grief as "like a wave", Heather is now trying to raise awareness of the condition to help others in her situation, reports Edinburgh Live.
