On the morning of April 4th 2020, 3 year old Caitlin Parle from Wexford didn’t wake up. It was discovered little Caitlin had suffered from a stroke - 7 months later, she’s fighting back and her mum Gemma joined Shonagh on this weeks Sunday Grill.
Caitlin spent 3 weeks in a coma in Temple Street ICU and during that time, she lost her large intestine. When she left ICU, she couldn’t talk or walk - but she refuses to give up, and fought every step of the way… continuing to do so. Caitlin has a long road ahead of her, but she’s back home with her big brother Jack and twin sister Abbie. Caitlin’s strength has got her this far, but she still has a long road ahead of her.
Caitlin still needs to learn how to walk and talk again, and needs to undergo a lot of therapies so mum Gemma decided to set up a Go Fund Me Page.
Hear her chat with Shonagh here.
