The heartbroken family of a man who died hours after struggling to breathe at night have paid tribute to him. Andy Forbes, from Widnes, sadly lost his life on April 8 at the age of 35, the Liverpool Echo reports.

His sister Katie Kearney, 38, described him as "cheeky chappy" who "was always trying to make everyone laugh". Andy, who was a huge Liverpool fan, suffered from a number of underlying health conditions as a result of a tragic motorbike accident when he was 17.

The incident left him paralysed from the neck down and caused him to suffer from respiratory conditions. Katie said that two days before he died, Andy had started suffering from a cough and was struggling to breathe.
