An overwhelming number of kind strangers have rallied around a grieving Ayrshire family to help them bury their beloved mum who died, on Christmas eve, after Strep A symptoms were thought to be a bout of flu.
Tragic Carolyn Butcher died from multiple organ failure, presumed invasive group a streptococcal disease (Strep A), and variceal hemorrhage.
A total of £1,435 has been donated to the family's online fundraiser to help cover expenses to bury the Irvine mum of five.
