A man whose partner tragically died at just 31 after she suddenly collapsed is raising money for Wales Air Ambulance in her memory. Gemma Harries, from Nantgaredig, collapsed suddenly on January 16 this year and went into cardiac arrest.
The beauty therapist received CPR straight away and the Air Ambulance attended to her, but despite the crew's best efforts Gemma tragically died at her partner, Joseff Edwards', home in Whitland after suffering a Pulmonary Thromboembolism and Deep Vein Thrombosis. Now, with his first birthday without Gemma approaching, Joseff is raising money in her memory.
"I just wanted to do something good out of a horrible situation so I decided to fundraise for the Wales Air Ambulance. They're fantastic," Joseff, who will turn 30 on Friday, said. Remembering Gemma, he said: "She was lovely. She was the best. You can't really describe her with words because the first time meeting her you'd feel you'd known her for a long, long time. She was just really homely and down to earth. She'd help anyone out."
