A schoolgirl has killed herself because she was desperate to be reunited with her dead father in heaven.

Maria Kislo, 12, was discovered hanging in her room by her mother Monika, 35, when she went to read her a bedtime story.

Next to the tragic youngster’s body was a short note saying: ‘Dear Mum. Please don’t be sad. I just miss daddy so much, I want to see him again.’

Her doting father Arek died suddenly in 2009 after a massive heart attack.

Distraught Ms Kislo, 35, from Leszno, Poland, said: ‘Five years ago I lost my husband Arek, this year my daughter. I don’t know if I can go on, and I wouldn’t if it was not for my son,’ she said.

‘She didn’t seem unhappy. She didn’t have problems at school and she seemed a happy little girl.

‘I had no idea she missed her father so much, she never really spoke about it,’ she added.
