Family in appeal to raise funds for open heart surgery on two-year-old son

A WEXFORD family are appealing to the public for help to fund open heart surgery for their son.

Ignacy Zygadlo, 2, will fly to Germany with his parents Maciek and Asia within the next two months for heart surgery, but only if they can raise the €16,500 cost of the operation.

The Zygadlo family hails from Krakow in Poland, but have been living in Wexford for six years now. They have made the Kilmore Quay area their home and Ignacy’s older brother Andrzej, 11, is a pupil in the local school.
