This is my grandmother. Last night she passed away after contracting COVID—19. None of her 14 grandchildren could see her in her final days. It should not have had to be this way. It should never have to be that way for any family, but for some it is. (1/n)

Truth be told she was the matriarch of our family and is going to be truly missed by her five children and 14 grandchildren. She fought it to the very end. She never let anyone push her around and even at the age of 89 it remained true for her final days. RIP Lolly ❤️❤️

She had to spend her final days alone because of how serious this outbreak is. It really hits home just how devastating this crisis is for many, many families out there. Lolly’s case of 5 children and 14 grandchildren. Imagine that for every other case in Ireland now. (2/n)

The public health advice of stay in and stay safe isn’t said for a laugh, and while the vast majority are listening to it. Many were not until recently. Don’t let this happen to your family. You will be bored, you will look at the four walls and you’ll want pints... (3/n)

Sorry but Munster fans have regularly booed James Lowe (a current Ireland player) down in Thomond Park, and were more than happy to jeer at Johnny Sexton as well. O'Gara's a pantomime villain, and is just as able to dish it out. It's shithousery. It's rivalry. It's sport.
