Not even cancer can stop granny graduating

A REMARKABLE Limerick grandmother has graduated with a BA Honours degree having fought breast cancer which necessitated a mastectomy in the middle of her studies.

Carol McKie, from Norwood Park, was the toast of the Limerick Institute of Technology after receiving her parchment for multi-media and programme design.

Carol said: “Now I’m going to take a bit of time out from my studies before embarking on a Masters degree course.”
