Story

I lost my fiancée, Laura, after a brave 5 week fight after contracting a rare and aggressive bacterial meningitis.

Laura was beautiful inside and out, one word to describe her, perfect.

Laura would light up a room when she walked into it. She was funny, vibrant, bubbly, and full of nonsense and carry on.

Laura was beautiful, loving, devoted, caring and loyal to all of her family and friends.
  
We were about to start the next chapter of our lives, moving into a new house together and planning marriage when Laura was so cruelly taken. It has left me heart broken as she was a part of me.

All of her family and friends have been left with a huge hole in their hearts and she will be missed forever.

I would like to thank all of the staff in the Neurology Unit of the Southern General Hospital, from the consultants to the cleaners, every member of staff, for the care and compassion they gave to Laura and the sympathy and compassion they gave to Laura's friends and family, everyone was outstanding.

Laura will always remain in our hearts and be loved and missed forever.
