Terminally ill teen donates €15k injury award to sister’s education
The settlement for the 16-year-old cancer sufferer was approved at the Circuit Court in Killarney yesterday after he was knocked off his bicycle by a car in September. Barrister Katie O’Connell told Judge Pauline Codd that Donal, from Hare St, Blennerville, Tralee, Co Kerry, “doesn’t have a lot of time left”.
Ms O’Connell said it was Donal’s request to put the money, in its entirety, into an account for his sister Jema’s education.
