This has taken me a few days to do as this has to be one of the hardest things I’ve ever had to write but felt it was so important to share as so many of my friends, family and Daydreamer followers have followed Jade’s inspirational story from the beginning. It was the news I never wanted to receive but last week whilst I was away, on 29.10.26 I had the heartbreaking update, my beautiful, strong friend had passed away. It still doesn’t feel real almost a week later.
Jade had only come into my life 6 years ago after her best friend, Steff had initially got in contact with me via a DM in 2020 after seeing things I had created for my own wedding at Weddings at Bucks Railway Centre where Jade was due to get married later that year. Steff and a few other friends, clubbed together and commissioned me to create a bespoke jacket for Jade to wear on her wedding day, this was even before I had set up Daydreamer!! Being 2020, their July 2020 wedding got postponed to September 2020 and then to the following July 2021 so it was decided I would make the jacket so the girls could gift it to Jade on her birthday in October 2020. Steff sent me the best photos of her unboxing her jacket when she received it ❤️
Since her stage 4 ALK + lung cancer diagnosis she did so much to raise awareness and so much fundraising including selling the Christmas cards which I had the pleasure of being involved with since the beginning ❤️❤️❤️
