This post by her Son James is taken from her Facebook support page:
We don't even know where to begin to write this, but our beautiful mum passed away yesterday afternoon at 5 o'clock. she fought to the absolute end and even the doctors couldn't believe she got so far. But ben stephan and me know it was our mum caring for us right till the end as always, and making sure we suffer as little as possible.
No one could of fought any harder than our mum, melanoma is one of the worst cancer you can have, and people don't last more than a year, but because our mum wouldn't give in and is stronger than any one we know we were lucky to have 6 more years, which our mum made amazing making the best out of a bad situation as always.
We have had the chance to say bye to our mum and although it was the hardest thing we'll ever have to do in our lives we have to feel lucky that we have had the chance to do it. our mum said that she doesn't want us to pine for her and although were devastated now when we get through this week we have to be happy, because she said she absolutely has no regrets whatsoever and lived life to the absolute full!!!
Our mum has been our rock to ben stephan and me all of our lives and even at the lowest points she still made the best out off everything as she always did.
I know everybody's mum is special, but our mum was just unbelievable. our lives will never be the same, because our mum was everything to us she was our best friend and loved us so much and we loved her with everything we had.
We gave it our absolute all, there is nothing we didn't try to beat this horrible disease, but we honestly won't be upset for long as thats what mum wanted.
Our mum was unable to put anything on here at the end, but when we spoke she always said how amazing it made her feel from the support of her amazing friends, so as a family want to thank you all from the bottom of our hearts for spurring her on so we could have as much time possible with her, you'll never know what it has meant to us.
