Girl, 18, was found dead by her twin sister after hanging herself in her bedroom surrounded by family photographs two days after Christmas and leaving a note saying 'Sorry xxxx'

A teenager was found dead by her twin sister after hanging herself in her bedroom surrounded by family photographs, an inquest has heard.
Heather Blower, 18, had spent Boxing Day at a party with her twin sister, Heidi, and close friends but at the end of the night, after finding herself at home alone, she lined up the photographs of her loved ones and wrote a note saying: 'Sorry xxxx.'
Heidi stayed on at the party, but returned home later to find her twin sister's body.
An inquest into the death of the teenager from Didsbury, Manchester, heard she had hanged herself.
The hearing was told that Heather had struggled with depression, and although she had told friends she wanted to die, her mood appeared to have improved after she was prescribed anti-depressants.
The tragedy occurred on December 27 last year after Heather enjoyed Christmas day with her family before spending Boxing Day at the party.
Her friend Shannon Ellis told the hearing in Manchester: 'She would tell me that she wanted to die and I would tell her that she would feel better soon and how she felt then, she would not always feel.
'On Boxing Day she told me she wanted to die but that she was glad that she pulled herself out of it and that she loved us and would not want to leave us. She said she was glad she's got us all.

'That night she must have had about three or four cans of beer in the house and about two pints of beer when we went out but she would sneak a vodka and Coke because Heidi didn't like her drinking it.'
Miss Ellis told the inquest how she had left the party with Heather but they went their separate ways when they got back to her home at the request of the teenager.
