Anncha Suzane Kepkey had so much to look forward to: becoming a gran in just two weeks’ time; hanging up her nursing gown in three years’ time; and buying a dream cottage, by the sea, with her dear husband.Instead, she died of the Covid-19 illness in May.

“She would have been extremely proud of his capping ceremony in May. I can remember she said: ‘The day he is capped, I’m going to make a big noise in that hall!'” “On that Monday, her colleague she worked side-by-side with the day before started displaying a headache.
