Hello, my name is Daniella. I’m a 27-year-old mum and I live in Westhoughton with my husband Julian, 32.

We’re just a normal family, but we’ve had to deal with a lot of heartache, having suffered the loss of our daughter, and then one of our twin boys.

I want to tell you how your local children’s hospice, Derian House, has been a light in the darkest of times.

There will be an empty space where we should be hanging Holly’s stocking for Santa this year – our first Christmas without our precious girl who would have just turned six-years-old.
