Cathy Lawton had terrifying nightmares in the weeks leading up to her and her husband’s trip to China. So anxious did she become as their flight date drew nearer that a friend bought her a set of four worry dolls. However, her daughters thought she was being silly.
Cathy ended up taking one of the worry dolls with her on March 8, 2014, when she and her husband boarded flight MH370.
After her three daughters heard the shocking news that the plane had gone missing via a family friend, they went back to their parents’ house to wait for news. News never came, only speculation. Speaking during an interview at the end of March 2014, the three women confirmed that they thought nothing of their mother’s nightmares leading up to the day she was scheduled to fly on holiday to China.
Only after the plane disappeared did the nightmares suddenly take on a whole new meaning to them. They each started carrying around one of the remaining worry dolls as a reminder of their mother. They have nothing else left but conspiracy theories and a continuous wait for answers that seem very unlikely to come.
Estelle lives in Gauteng, South Africa. She really wishes that the mystery surrounding flight MH370 could be solved.
