The mum of a twin girl who tragically passed away from suspected bowel issues has paid an emotional tribute, saying: "You were the jewel in our hearts, you were loved in every way". Heartbroken Debbie Morrison, 47, joined grieving family and friends as they said goodbye to Shaylisha Morrison, 10, with a horse-drawn carriage funeral after her unexpected death. Debbie said Shaylisha and her 'inseparable' twin sister, Chardonnay, had battled with constipation since they were newborns, which she consistently brought to the attention of their doctors.
However, she claims the advice she received was simply to ensure they ate plenty of 'fruit, vegetables and water'. Tragically, Shaylisha was discovered lifeless on a couch by her father, Eddie Morrison, 45, on May 30 following days of illness with vomiting and diarrhoea. Chardonnay also fell ill with similar symptoms and was rushed to hospital just four days later, but is now thankfully making a recovery, confirmed Debbie.
During the emotional service at Bury Cemetery's chapel in Greater Manchester , Debbie read out a poignant poem in memory of her daughter. She expressed: "There's a place inside our hearts that only you can fill. You were the jewel in our hearts, you were loved in every way.
" "Now you're gone you're sorely missed each and every day. We love you princess, sleep tight, fly high. Shine bright my beautiful shining star.
", reports the Manchester Evening News . Whilst the cause of Shaylisha's death is yet to be confirmed,.
