Triplets’ mother praises hospital

THE mother of snow baby triplets who arrived into the world eight weeks early has said they might not have made it but for the fantastic work of staff at their local hospital.

“Snow babies” Aaron, Finn, and Ryan Hayden-Freeman were born on Wednesday morning, December 1, at Wexford General Hospital, following a dramatic few hours after their mother Mandy Hayden-Freeman woke up with labour pains at 5am.

Mandy’s husband, John, contacted the emergency services at 6.12am on Wednesday, December 1, and, while they tried to organise a helicopter, two regular ambulances and two with four-wheel-drive set off to her house from Wexford General Hospital.
