Kieran gears up to fitness after transplant

A MAN who had a double lung transplant five weeks ago is cycling his way back to full fitness.

Last year, doctors told 29-year-old Kieran Treacy from Ardfert, Co Kerry, he could die within five years unless he underwent the transplant.

At the time, he was spending three hours a day in physiotherapy and was breathing at night with an oxygen machine.
