Does this mean I won’t have cerebral palsy any more? Iarlaith gets €3.6m interim settlement over birth circumstances

A seven-year-old boy with cerebral palsy has secured an interim €3.6m payment under a settlement of his High Court action over the circumstances of his birth at Cork University Maternity Hospital.

Outside court today, Iarlaith Ó Cinnéide, who the court heard has received an advanced form of physiotherapy, smiled as he told journalists: "I'm so proud of my progress, I can walk and talk and eat and dance."
