Stolen laptop mum: 'I never thought I'd see it again'
A stolen laptop containing the last photographs of a terminally ill child before she died has been returned to her family.
The mother of Chloe McCance from Bangor in County Down had made an emotional appeal to the burglars to give the computer back.
While the family was out, burglars ransacked Chloe's bedroom which was full of sympathy cards, before stealing her laptop, as well as the family's Christmas presents.
Hours after making an appeal to the thieves, Lynda McCance said that the computer was now back in her possession, and she had been overwhelmed by messages of support.
Describing the initial burglary Linda told ÃÛÑ¿´«Ã½ Radio 5 Live: "just when you think life has thrown all it can at you, and things can't get any worse... To come back and find that was just unbelievable."
Linda added: "I never thought in a million years I'd see it [the laptop] again."
