Woman, 21, dies in her sleep after spending Sunday evening with family

A young woman has died in her sleep after spending a Sunday evening with her family.

Chloe Caton, 21, had been staying with her family before she suddenly died. The Nottingham Post reports she had enjoyed a Sunday roast and watching Britain's Got Talent with her loved ones prior to her unexpected death.

Mum Ami, aged 41, said: "I have to try to get through it minute by minute. It's unbearable. It is so heart-breaking. She was very bubbly. She was kind and caring and had the most infectious laugh on the planet.

"She was not just my daughter, she was my best friend. We had our ups and downs, but she was my world. She's my world, my first-born and my first girl."

Ami added: "At about 8am the next morning, I was half-awake and my grandchildren's mum Chloe Shenton said 'What's up with Chloe?' I dived down to the bottom of the bed and said 'She's dead'.

"I got her and was shaking her to try to wake her up. I was expecting her to tell me to 'f*** off'. It has been one tragedy after another. We still don't know the cause of death. Funerals don't come cheap and I want the best for her, because she was the best."
