The mother of a Waterford baby, Cadhla, who has undergone two open heart surgeries, says she's been blown away by the kindness of volunteers.

Stacey Collins is the mother of seven-month-old Cadhla who has a number of complex issues, including holes in her heart, and epilepsy.

This means she requires round the clock care.

The family has been living in a mobile home as they had to stop work on building their house just outside An Rinn.

Stacey has had some very good news about the house in recent weeks, thanks to the kindness of complete strangers.

Listen above as she tells MaryAnn Vaughan what has been going on in the lives of her and her family for the last seven months.
