Coast Guard rescue man suffering from the 'bends'
A 65-year-old man suffering from decompression sickness is being treated at the Irish Naval Base in Cork after being airlifted early today from the beach at Kilkee in Co Clare.
The man, who had been diving with friends yesterday, began to show signs of the 'bends' late last night and after being assessed by a doctor, was airlifted to Cork in the early hours of this morning.
