Story

So it’s that time of year again where we come begging for donations! @Karen Bolger, @Louise Murtagh and I are going to (try) abseil down Croke Park for Crumlin. As I’m sure you all know my son Senan was born with a rare disease called Hirschsprungs Disease. He will soon be having his 4th surgery and has just battled another potentially fatal infection while still having a smile on his face. Crumlin has saved his life on not just one occasion and unfortunately they will most likely have to do it again. They also offer us the best support and the nurses up there have become our friends and treat Senan like family. They get upset when he is admitted again and they comfort us when we have our bad days and wonder how to carry on. They are not only Senan’s lifeline but ours too so we are trying to raise as much funds for them while doing something that is absolutely terrifying for us.  Please support us while we do something to try and repay them in some small way for all that they have done.
