Couple who lost son to raise funds with CD

THE wheel came full circle for a north Tipperary couple on June 14, 2007, when their fourth child was born in a car just outside a doctor’s surgery on the outskirts of Limerick.

Almost 10 years earlier, their first child David Smyth — who was just six and a half weeks old — died suddenly in Derrybeg, Ballina.

Paul Smyth and his wife, Emer, had to suffer the agony of watching David being pronounced dead by their GP, Dr Robert Magnier.
