Mum shares late son's last words

The heartbreaking video was shared on TikTok by Metro, showing Ravina recalling her son's final moments with her.

In the video, Ravina spoke tearfully about a video call she had with her son after he boarded the flight.

"He said goodbye and told me he would call me after landing," she remembered, her voice filled with emotion.

Lawrence had returned to Ahmedabad from London to comfort his mother after his father's death and to perform his father's last rites.

His decision to travel back to London proved fateful, as the plane crashed shortly after takeoff, claiming his life along with many others.

Having recently lost her husband, Daniel, to health complications, Ravina was already in a state of pain and the loss of her son added to her grief.

She's now struggling to cope with the devastating aftermath of two tragic events in quick succession.

"When he was in the plane, he appeared on a video call and said goodbye. That was the last thing he said before switching off the phone. And he said he would call me after he lands. That was the last thing he said," she lamented over her son.
