Following my letter in the Irish Times about the picture of Brian O’Driscoll, Michaela Morley and The Heineken Cup, I was contacted in the nicest possible way by Temple Street Children’s University Hospital. They’re naturally pleased with the fact that the Irish Times picture has highlighted the work they do.
Michaela, the six-year-old in the photo, is from Mayo. She attends Temple Street three times each week for dialysis. One can only imagine what a kidney transplant would do for her quality of life.
So I’ve decide to sign up. I have requested an organ donor card from the Irish Kidney Association. I intend to sign it, have my wife (next of kin) sign it and then carry it with me at all times.
You should too.
Temple Street Chidren’s University Hospital can be reached here. You should visit them as well to see how you might be able to help.
