For every new parent, bringing their newborn home from hospital is a special, milestone moment.
Kerry couple Michelle and Joe Duggan had to wait 13 months after their son Jack was born to get their Christmas wish and bring him home to Tralee. And on the day, December 23, 2022, the Bumbleance, the national children’s ambulance service, was on hand to help.
