It’s hard to believe its been four weeks today since our beautiful boy Jack was tragically taken from us. He was a healthy, happy, fun loving, caring, sporty, awesome boy who we all miss more than words can describe. I am so proud to be his Mother and will treasure every precious moment I had with him. I would like to thank everyone for their overwhelming support of our family and to everybody helping to spread the very important message about Shallow Water Blackout so we can prevent this type of terrible tragedy happening to another family. A BIG thanks to my sister Sharon and brother-in-law Gary for their tireless commitment to the prevention campaign and all that has been achieved in the past few weeks. To my fiancé Mel for being my rock during the worst time of my life. RIP Jack. Mum loves you mate xo
