So much for a small plan!

It has taken a few days to come around following Tommy Tiernan ‘s comedy show ‘Under the Influence’ in Letterkenny.

We started this Scholarship as a small token to remember Victoria and suddenly it was linked to Nuig university’s Masters course in children’s palliative care and complex care. One small email and Tommy was coming to present our bursaries to hardworking nurses.

Then he kindly offers to do a big gig!!!

Walking into a room like the one below moved us so much. 800+ people were there. It never ceases to amaze us what Victoria inspires.

So much for a small plan. 💗

Thank you to all involved recently in helping the scholarship.

To Tommy, Yvonne and the whole Tommedian team – you are magic. Thank you.

The Tommy Tiernan comedy show is on tonight in Letterkenny. (Doors open at 7:30 pm) We want to thank all those who are making this happen (Yvonne, Tommy’s team, Aiken promotions) and all those attending and of course the man himself – Tommy. We love and miss Victoria always and her magic doesn’t seem to want to stop. On we roll … and we hope the tears tonight are ones of laughter.
