Ray of hope for Saoirse after US invite for trials
Yesterday Tony Heffernan, the father of four-year-old Saoirse Heffernan, said they were “over the moon” their little girl had been accepted to participate in the trials sooner than expected on foot of an MRI which showed no major neurological changes since last August.
“We are absolutely delighted. It is a magnificent result for us, because so many kids in the USA have already been dismissed by those carrying out the trials without even reaching baseline assessment,” Tony said.
