THE heartbroken family of a teenager who tragically died from undiagnosed type 1 diabetes are campaigning to raise awareness of the “silent killer”.
Just months after finishing her GCSEs, 16-year-old Jenny Kitching began complaining of a stomach ache and tiredness.
Days later, the Halsall teenager slipped into a coma, and after two weeks in intensive care she passed away on September 18 last year.
Now her parents Amanda and David, cousin Selina and family and friends want to raise awareness of the condition to help others. Her parents released a heartfelt tribute to Jenny that said: ‘Jenny Wren’ was our life and soul, she is beautiful inside and out, and is missed every second of each day.”
