Tributes have been paid by the family of an Edinburgh man after he passed away following a battle with sepsis
. Dean Robertson, from the Wester Hailes area of the city, tragically died after suffering organ failure brought on by the infection.
“We have found it very hard asking for funds for the funeral as we are not used to asking for help as a family. We are just hoping to raise enough money to give Dean the send off that he deserves. “They made sure he had a quality of life as they took him on family holidays where he swam with dolphins and visited Harry Potter World. They always thought it was important to make as many memories as they could because they did not know when his time would come.
“He would have a bell on his wheelchair and if it was dinged it would set him off laughing, he also really enjoyed people singing to him. Dean was a proud uncle and loved it when his nieces and nephews were born, he even liked it when they cried. “We started a GoFundMe as Karen had to give up working last year to look after Dean when his health deteriorated. The fundraiser will help cover the funeral costs as at the moment they are not in a position with funds to give him the send off they want.
“Dean was a big Hibee. My daughter contacted the club to see if they could donate a shirt for the funeral and they sent one with Dean 27 on the back which he is due to be buried in. This is so special as he had a Hibs mural on his bedroom wall when he was younger.
