Keela’s parents celebrate her gift of life

This Easter Keela Smith’s parents will celebrate the gift of life given to their gorgeous daughter when she was just a baby, four years ago.

On Easter Saturday 2009, parents John and Orla Smith from Blackrock, Cork, had their lives turned upside down when their 11-month-old daughter fell seriously ill.

The tot was left fighting for her life after being struck down by a near-fatal virus that attacked her heart.
