Cervical Check: Terminally ill young mother makes moving appeal to Taoiseach

Lynsey Bennett survived two previous bouts of cancer but it returned during the pandemic.

A young mother of two with terminal cervical cancer has issued a moving appeal to the Government to push through legislation to support her children and other bereaved families.

Lynsey Bennett (32), who is suing for alleged misinterpretation of her cervical smear slides taken under the national screening programme, wants to know her 12-year-old and seven-year-old daughters will be protected.
