Sick girl living in flat despite rehousing pleas

A LIMERICK girl suffering from cystic fibrosis is living in a cramped flat with her mother despite pleas from doctors to the city council for more suitable accommodation.

Now Bridget Atkinson says she may be forced to go to the courts to force the council into action.

Her daughter, Lyndsey, 13, was recently allowed out of hospital for her Confirmation with classmates at Scoil Mháthair Dé.
