Wexford girl (8) in race against time to save her hearing – 'the longer this goes on the more damage it's doing'
After years of appointments, years of consultations, examinations, and surgeries, Zara O’Brien (8) can no longer afford to wait for the Irish health system to catch up. She is now in a race against time, in a race to save her hearing, a race which her mam, Grace, fears she is losing. Since first noticing there was an issue with her daughter’s hearing five years ago, Grace has been fighting for answers, going from her GP to University Hospital Waterford (UHW) to Beacon Hospital as Zara’s condition gradually worsened.
