Laura Sheridan, a nurse from Comeragh Park beams with positivity, but it's been a tough year for the brave mum of three. This former 'Nurse of Year' and 'Nursing Home Manager' battled through Covid times before being diagnosed with stage 3 Hodgkin’s Lymphoma, a form of cancer that affects the immune system.

Furthermore, Laura’s beautiful twin boys were also found to have a form of autism which requires constant supervision and care. Every day is a tough battle for Laura and taking time out to rest and recover as just not an option for this separated Mum.

Like every parent, all Laura just wants to do is make her children happy and secure and the DIY SOS volunteer team endeavour to help make that possible in a cold and wintery Waterford.
