A magical start to 2024. So grateful to all the staff at the @_TheNMH who helped bring our little man into the world this day last week. A special thanks to @DrShaneHiggins8 who’s care and kindness will never be forgotten. It was a long journey but we got there.

The mark of the amazing woman she was. Keelin sent me a txt after an election OB in Ashbourne just two weeks ago. It read “great job on the news tonight and love the dress and hair”. So when people talk of her encouragement, that’s what they mean.
