Nick Knowles and the DIY SOS team help a devastated mother, who couldn’t go in two rooms of their house because of the painful memories of the death of her seven-year-old child and husband

Caroline Blanchard was unable to enter two rooms in her house because of the painful memories they triggered.

The heartbroken mother, from Scunthorpe, experienced the worst pain any parent could possibly imagine in traumatic circumstances.

Then just years later, the grief-stricken family were cruelly rocked by another devastating tragedy.

Before the DIY SOS team embarked on an emotional rebuild, the family were subjected to daily visual reminders of the tragic events that took away two of their loved ones.

Their harrowing ordeal began with a tragic accident in their garage in 2007, when seven-year-old Natasha sadly lost her life.

Heartbreakingly, her condition quickly deteriorated and she was rushed to hospital.

“I just remember the surgeon coming in and telling me she was bleeding that badly she couldn’t stop it,” explains tearful Caroline on tonight’s show.

Doctors dealt Caroline and Paul with the devastating news that Natasha needed to be taken off a life-support machine – and she passed away two days after the accident.

Burdened with guilt, motorbike fan Paul decided to crush every single bike that he owned and would sit in the garage for hours trying to come to terms with what happened.

In September 2012, Caroline gave birth to daughter Paige Hope, whose name was chosen by their son Reece because it was a ‘new chapter in their lives’.
