Hide AdMum, Samantha, dad, Adam, and nanny, Sally, helped Harrison to cut the ribbon at the re-opening of the shop in Laughton Road.
At just three-weeks-old, Harrison contracted meningitis and was rushed into hospital. His life hung in the balance and after a very worrying few days, Samantha and Adam were told by doctors that nothing more could be done for him.
They decided to move to Bluebell Wood, to spend their final, precious days with Harrison, surrounded by all of their family and friends.
Samantha said: “But then the most amazing thing happened. The nurse removed Harrison’s ventilator and he continued breathing. I can’t describe how incredible that moment was.”
