Please let me die.  "I put them in the bath. We were meant to be together. I was going to jump off a cliff but it's too dark."  While she was taken to hospital, police attended the address she was renting in Margate where they found the two toddlers in their bedroom in nappies and clean, dry baby grows.  Attempts were made to revive them, but sadly they were unsuccesful.  While in hospital, Ford was described as hysterical, screaming: "I wouldn't hurt them, they're my babies. This is a dream."  Ford denied murder but admitted two counts of manslaughter on the grounds of diminished responsibility at a hearing in May 2019.  At her sentencing hearing on July 26, the Old Bailey heard that Ford and her husband had spent the first 10 years of their marriage living in Qatar and their children were born by IVF while living there.  But the relationship turned sour after they returned to the UK in early 2018 and moved to the village of Charing, the court heard.  Ford was angry at leaving her affluent lifestyle in the Middle East, the Old Bailey heard, and was said to be trying to pressure her husband into returning to Qatar - leading to their split in November 2018.  Relatives said Ford's mental health declined rapidly following the separation, and she sent multiple text messages to her estranged husband trying to persuade him to return to her.  She and the children moved to an address in Margate while Mr Ford remained in Charing.  The court heard that her mental health declined rapidly following the separation and she made multiple internet searches of different methods of suicide.  By Christmas,
