The family of Emma Atkinson, 38, from Leeds, say she tragically died in a freak accident

Emma Atkinson, 38, died in the fall from the tenth floor window, but astonishingly her baby daughter was delivered safely in hospital and is winning her fight for life.

Brandi Hogan's daughter Bella, three, was diagnosed with Level 3 Nonverbal Autism just before her third birthday, but the mother believes the little girl was showing signs as early as eight months.

"She was so clever and talented artistically, whether that was musically, painting, everything she turned her hand to"

The mother of two, 34, and her new partner, 27, who is a tree surgeon from Kent, enjoyed a romantic stroll across the beach with her children Amelia, five, and Bodhi, three.

Kathleen Nicol, known by her friends and family as Kathy, was walking in the supermarket car park on Baths Road in Longton, Stoke-on-Trent when she was struck by the van.
