THE heartbroken mum of a 'true hero' son who died six years after he was brutally attacked while intervening in a road rage incident has paid a moving tribute to him.
Cameron Brooksbank, 24, known by his loved ones as Cam, was tragically pronounced dead after being found unresponsive at an address in Middleton on June 18 of last year.
An inquest on Wednesday found that a mix of both prescription drugs and cocaine were in his system when he died - but a coroner concluded that Cameron did not intend to take his own life.
Mum Clair Grundy described Cameron as 'my best friend and my life, adding it is 'an honour' to be his mum and his death 'left a huge void in the family which will never be filled again!
"To my precious son Cameron who was my best friend and my life, being my only child," she wrote. "The day he died was the day I died inside. He was and is loved by so many people.
