A mum and dad have been left 'broken' after the sudden of their two-month-old baby girl. Chelsea Bridgman, 33, and Liam Wiseman, 36, had a "normal night" before going to bed. Their little girl, Mackenzie, woke up for her night-time feed and the family went back to sleep.
Tragically, when Chelsea and Liam woke up the following morning (October 15) their little girl had passed away, turning their world upside down. A post-mortem found the tiny tot died from (SIDS). Now, the family is fundraising for Glasgow-based Scottish Cot Death Trust (SCDT) - a charity "dedicated to the issue of sudden unexpected death in babies and young children.
" Opening up on their heartache, mum Chelsea told : " Chelsea, who has a six-year-old son and a step-son wasn't sure whether to try for another baby, but was over the moon when Mackenzie was born, before her life was sadly "cut too short". The mum tearfully added: "We thought of trying one last time for a girl. It got taken away from us, her life was cut too short.
"She had so much more to show us. She was happy and cheeky, she had a side grin she would do. "She was a big part of the whole community, it’s a small village and everyone was excited.
She brought everyone together and was really special." In her memory, the family have so far raised over £1,000 for SCDT and plan to continue fundraising to help support a vital charity which has provided comfort during this difficult time. With their help, the family will now get counselling.
