Shannon's Story

05/06/2026

Hi guys hoping someone can help us out, as many know we moved house in December and we got tiles laid in January by a chap I won't name just yet local enough to the carlow area and his name was recommend by a good few people but low and behold our tiles have came loose, others are very uneven and grout is falling out between the tiles, he came back and looked at them finally in April and agreed to fix them that he didn't know what went wrong, but he hasn't came back and after sending messages and phone calls we are now blocked by this man. So I guess im looking for someone to come and price the job of it been fixed as we will need this as we now have to go down the legal route something we didn't want to do and have giving him so many chances but the floor cant be left the way it is with Shannon shes already after cutting her toe igs so unfair to do this to any family it cost us alot of money as its a big area. So if anyone can help us we are just outside carlow town. Thanks so much guys.
I've added some pictures to give ye a idea of what we where left with.
Please share and hopefully we will get it sorted.

Hi all, I havnt done a update in a little while as we had alot going on we spent some time in hospital with our daughter leah and then every bug hit our house so here's a little update on little Shannon 💚

Shannon got her cast in December and it was a rockey start but we battle along and on the 17th of March Shannon got sick and her belly was so sore she was just crying in so much pain so we made the decision to take the cast off and the relief she got was unreal she was free again, it had been 3months so it was due to be off soon, we cant get hold of the hospital so we have no idea what is next for little Shannon im going to add a picture of her back and as her parents we wont be agreeing to casting again, she was always overheating, always uncomfortable and giving her showers/baths afterwards was just so hard for her taking so long to dry 😪
We are hoping to stay going with the gofundme and hopefully get to the uk for them to take another look at Shannon and hopefully get a brace for her 💚💚
Its hard but we keep going and Shannon is just amazing 💚💚

Hope everyone has a lovely Easter 🐣

Thanks so much for the support it never goes unnoticed 💚💚

Update on our little warrior Shannon 💚
So as many of ye know Shannon went under general anaesthetic on thrusday for her body cast but when she woke up she was trying to talk but making no sense,biting herself,slapping us banging her head off the floor, she was so distressed at first we taught oh no the cast but when the nurse saw her she knew shan had taking a reaction so we waited for the doctor to come back down to see her and she was then giving medication to sedate her thankfully that worked after two rounds and she became more relaxed honestly this was so frighten to see her like that 😢 her surgeon was of no help and kept refusing to come speak to us 🙄🙄 i have to say every nurse that dealt with Shannon that day where so kind and got her gifts and honestly tried so hard with us 🩷 we taught the cast might have to come off but they cut it back to allow more room and we will see how she goes its been so hard since thrusday as she keeps saying its sore and wants it off 😢😢 i just want to thank everyone for the kindness on Shannon's page we really appreciate it 💚💚 we have decided to keep funding to get Shannon to the uk for the brace as I dont think she will ever be able to go through casting again 😢😢
I'll add a picture of Shannon in the cast 💚💚
Thanks so much 💚💚

Hi all just getting a chance to give ye all a update about Shannon's treatment so next week she will go back into a body cast this is something we didn't want as its the one that can't be taking off and Shannon has sensory issues but we will give it a go and see how we get on, unfortunately they are saying now they can't provide us with a brace its so disappointing really and this means we will have to go back to the uk. We are currently trying to get into our new house before Xmas so I havnt had a chance to reply to emails and messages but I will try over the weekend.
Thankfully Shannon is on the mend and is back at school she's excited to be back 💚💚
Much love Yvonne 💚💚
