Tributes have been paid to a ‘brilliant' mum who sadly lost her battle against her demons after she was found dead at home.
The family of Samantha Gawthorpe thought she was on the road to recovery and in a good place when she was found unresponsive in the bedroom of her mum’s home on April 14. Despite desperate attempts by her partner and paramedics, Samantha, known as Sammy, died three days later at Hull Royal Infirmary.
An inquest into her death took place on Friday in Hull with assistant coroner Lorraine Harris concluding her death was ‘drug related’. Her family spoke afterwards and paid tribute to Sammy who was just 42 when she died, HullLive reports.
