Family’s unexplained death warning as mum died just feet from newborn son’s cot
A young epileptic mum died suddenly of a rare and unexplained phenomenon just feet away from her newborn son’s cot.
Daniella Jane, 31, was found dead in bed on January 24 2024 by her partner Reggie, 29, near their now nine-month-old son Ronnie in his cot.
Her mother, Kerry Cook, 51, from Essex, received the results of Daniella’s post-mortem examination which found she died of sudden unexpected death in epilepsy – SUDEP – a term used to describe where there is no clear reason why a person with epilepsy has died, according to the charity Epilepsy Action.
