Lawlor returns to radio after cancer treatment

Almost nine months after she left the programme to undergo treatment for cancer, Morning Ireland stalwart Áine Lawlor was back on the airwaves yesterday.

Ms Lawlor’s return was typically low-key, with her introduction at the start of the broadcast the same as she had done so many times before.

However, for the duration of the programme friends, fans, and colleagues took to Twitter in their droves to say how wonderful it was to hear her back.
