HSE: All possible support to be given to liver-transplant patient Maedhbh

The CEO of the Health Service Executive Cathal Magee has said every effort will be made to support Meadhbh McGivern after her life-saving transplant surgery in the UK.

It has emerged the 14-year-old from Leitrim may have to fly home on a commercial flight with scores of other passengers, despite undergoing a marathon liver transplant operation last week.
