Taoiseach challenged on Cork woman holding bake sale to fund 'life-saving' treatment

'A bake sale to raise money for potentially life-saving treatment. That is a glaring indictment of public eating disorder care in Ireland,' TD Holly Cairns said

A West Cork TD has raised the case of Emma O’Sullivan, a woman who is trying to fundraise her own care to get inpatient care for OCD and an eating disorder, in the Dáil on Tuesday.

Earlier this month Ms O'Sullivan, 25,  told the Irish Examiner she believes her life is at risk if she cannot access specialised care soon.
