Support for a family after Tallaght house fire
Donation protected
Hello,
My name is Pat,
In the early hours of the 14th of April. My Sister in law, Brother in Law, Niece nephew and their Grandson were asleep when a fire occurred in their home.
The results were devastating, the house was destroyed, and all of them were taken to Intensive care units in separate hospitals.
After a week my Niece and her Son were released.
My sister in law had smoke inhalation, and severe damage to her lungs. She spent a week in a coma, and another week in hospital before she was released from Tallaght Hospital Dublin.
My brother in law spent 4 weeks in a coma, after suffering 20% burns to his body, and smoke inhalation, and a further 2 weeks recovering in the burns unit of Saint James Hospital Dublin.
Unfortunately my nephew had suffered the worst of all of them. He had Lung damage, and burns to 70% of his body. To the extent of this that he had a sample of his skin sent to Switzerland to biologically grow new skin to preform skin graphs. The procedure preformed on him is the first time ever to be done in Ireland, or the UK. The skin takes 4 weeks to grow, and will need to be done multiple times, with doctors expecting that the earliest he will be released from Our Lady's Hospital Crumlin is November.
My Sister in law and brother in law are now trying to balance their days between Hospital and rebuilding their lives.
Any donation would be greatly appreciated, and all of your support would make such a difference to them.
Kind regards Pat Mullen.
