Family Friend To Walk 100k To Raise Funds For Clare Child Who Suffered Life Changing Brain Injury

Last September, we were joined in studio by Owen O’Brien to talk about his son Cillian, who had suffered life changing injuries following a sudden collapse in school this year. Caused by a rare condition called Arteriovenous Malformation, young Cillian sustained a catastrophic brain bleed and was rushed to Temple Street Children’s Hospital. Cillian’s acquired brain injury affected his speech to the point where he was non-verbal, his vision was compromised, and he was physically unable to support himself. An iDonate campaign had been set up with a target of €300,000, to help provide accessible and future proofed living space at the family home. On Thursday’s Morning Focus, Alan Morrissey was joined by Dónall O’Connor from Doora, who is doing his part to help with that mission.
