RTE news : Extra special school places needed in Dublin 15, report rte.ie/news/regional/…

Aaron Langan, 9, from Laghey, Donegal, is one of around 150 children in Ireland with Duchenne muscular dystrophy (DMD), an incurable genetic condition that causes the muscles to slowly stop working. The drug Givinostat was approved by the European Medicines Agency last June as a treatment for children with the condition who are at least six years old, but the HSE is still reviewing whether it will cover it. A decision is not expected until next month. “Aaron has had to use a wheelchair since March,” his parents, Sinead and Dermot said. Their fear is that, if there is any further delay, he could lose more muscle strength and therefore miss out on the drug, which is only licensed for children who are still able to move. Aaron, who is in second class in St Eunan’s National School, is still mobile in his upper body. Children with the condition grow weaker as they get older, but Givinostat has given new hope for slowing down deterioration. #DMD #DuchenneMuscularDystrophy #Givinostat independent.ie/irish-news/the…

Sam's still missing. The 12th of February is long past. Please send this out as his family are really worried. He's from Dublin. One of your followers might have a follower from there. Who could've seen him. Many thanks. Jill 🫂💞

Does anyone know Liam McLoughlin from Belfast? I sent him £210 for 3 x Liverpool tickets which never materialised, I’ve since been told he’s ripped a lot of people off and owes thousands. Steer clear! Just putting it out there so people are aware. Calls himself “king daddy” 😂

Powerful piece on DriveTime. It is a disgrace that there is a need for this campaign. Its strength and power is its testament to families who have had to fight for their children all their lives. “We can all learn from people like Evan.” Jane Johnstone is the mother of two adult sons with an intellectual disability. She is fighting to secure a residential care plan for her sons after she passes away. #Drivetime #BeforeWeDie rte.ie/radio/radio1/c…

Primary schools are built for education not for child minding. Thinking an 8 year old should be educated from 8.30 to 6.00 is a bizzare take.

Such a brilliant and yet poignant. The very hard truths that we parents are facing as we get older. I have 7 spinal fractures. But there is no safeguarding legislation in Ireland. Who would I trust to take care of my beautiful daughter? Nobody but me!!! rte.ie/radio/radio1/c…
