Two devastated teenagers have been left orphaned following the tragic death of their mother. Carol Oliver, 47, died on Good Friday after a five-month battle with pneumonia.
Her death comes just three years after her partner Steve Loughrey died from septicaemia. They leave behind sons Ethan, 18, and Bailey, 14, who has severe autism.
The brothers, from Eccles , now have no source of income. Ethan has since quit college to care for Bailey full time. The pair only have two family members remaining, their auntie and cousin Genna.
