"Well, you will never run a marathon." Etty suffers from ongoing Sarcoidosis which is a chronic inflammatory disease that primarily involves the lungs. Niamh, her sister, likes to run and is going to run the Cork City Marathon on June 6th to raise funds for those suffering from chronic lung diseases. This blog will be a parallel account of their trials and tribulations in the coming months: the would-be marathoner; the mother-of-three moving home and struggling with serious, ongoing Sarcoidosis.

Coffee Morning Supreme
There were white scones, brown scones, seed scones. There were scones with cream and jam, butter, butter and jam, plain and whatever you're having yourself. There were chocolate meringues, iced fairy cakes and more besides. There was chat, explaining, introductions, questions and more introductions. There were pensioners and babies, cyclists in lycra, neighbours, friends and relatives. There were donations galore. All-in-all, it was a lovely morning! Mairéad, baking since 7.30 in the morning, raised over €500 for the Irish Lung Foundation, which I will register on the charity site as an off-line donation. Etty and I are very grateful.
