Keane sends hospital temperatures soaring

HEART rates quickened and temperatures soared in a hospital yesterday as soccer legend Roy Keane arrived on home turf to open a cancer information centre.

Looking fit and tanned, and dressed in a sharp suit, the former Manchester United and Republic of Ireland star was mobbed after he cut the ribbon to officially open the Irish Cancer Society’s Daffodil Centre inside the Bon Secours Hospital in Cork.

The first of its kind in Munster, the centre is run by Irish Cancer Society specialist nurses and trained volunteers.
