Out of tragedy comes hope

Out of a double tragedy that claimed the lives of a mother and her newborn baby comes the prospect of saving many little lives.

Aidan McCabe’s life was “wiped out” when his wife Tania and one of their twins, Zach, died at childbirth in Mar 2007.

The second twin, Adam, born at 27 weeks and weighing just 2lb 10oz, spent the next three months fighting for his life before pulling through.
