Irene Teap backed repealing the 8th Amendment

The husband of Irene Teap, who died after two false negative cervical checks, has released a picture of her supporting the Repeal the Eighth movement.

In a post on Facebook, Stephen Teap, Carrigaline, Co Cork said Irene, who died in July 2017, was coming to the end of a gruelling chemotherapy session when she had the picture taken.

“As sick as she was, she got out of her bed, slapped on some make-up, made her sign, and took this selfie to show her support to all the other women of Ireland who were looking for change,” said Mr Teap.
