Bernard Óg in aid of Temple Street

Bernard Óg Keaney has been attending Temple Street Hospital since his birth 8 years ago. Bernard Óg has spend most of his life in Temple Street, he was born with end stage renal failure which meant he had to be peg fed. He traveled 3 times a week from his home in Roundstone, Galway to Temple Street in Dublin to receive this vital care. Thankfully Bernard Óg received a kidney from an organ donor in 2016 which has given him a whole new lease on life. He still continues to receive care from Temple Street Hospital. Bernard Óg would not be here today without  the life saving dialysis machine and the care from Temple Street Hospital.

Bernard and his family now want to raise much needed funds for Temple Street so they can continue to provide this life saving equipment to other children like Bernard. Bernard's cousin Gerard Connolly is travelling from Boston, USA to run the Dublin City Marathon on the 28th October to raise funds for this much needed cause.

Bernard and his family would be very appreciative of all support. 100% of funds will go directly to Temple Street Hospital.
