Couple offer home to patients in need

A RETIRED couple have offered their home to the Health Service Executive for use as an isolation unit for cystic fibrosis suffers.

Noreen and Brendan Doyle, in their 60s, live in a five-bedroom bungalow close to Beaumont Hospital in Dublin.

Ms Doyle said she offered her home to the HSE after hearing seriously ill CF sufferers plead for a hospital bed on RTÉ’s Liveline on Monday.
