Teen who felt 'sick and overwhelmed' found dead in bed by mum

A teenager who was found dead in bed by his mother after having suffered a cardiac arrest had earlier complained of feeling 'sick and overwhelmed', an inquest heard.

George Edwards, 18, was found unresponsive at his home in Altringham, near Manchester, on November 12, 2021. When police and paramedics arrived the youngster was tragically pronounced dead at the scene, clutching a teddy.

As reported by MEN, an inquest at South Manchester Coroner's Court overseen by assistant coroner Anna Morris heard a heartbreaking testimony from George's mother Tracy in which she revealed she had checked on him that morning and found him 'lifeless'. Ms Edwards said her son had reported feeling 'overwhelmed' and had vomited in the week leading to his death.
