I need to give my boys the best lives I can, says Erin’s mum

The mother of Erin and Shannon Gallagher has revealed she is keeping a scrapbook of their tragic story to show to their younger brothers when they get older.

Lorraine Gallagher spent the weekend recalling the life of her youngest daughter Erin, aged 13, who took her own life on Oct 27 last year.

She will have to do it all again in just six weeks time to remember the life of her second daughter Shannon, aged 15, who also took her life last November.
