I want to raise the case of Hannah Donnelly from Drogheda again. She has been in hospital since March 2017. In March 2018, medical opinion stated that the best place for her was at home. For the past 19 months, Hannah Donnelly has lain on a hospital bed waiting for a home care support package. Hannah is 18 years of age. She was at home for a few hours last week and was heartbroken that she had to go back to hospital the next day. There is still no discharge date with regard to when Hannah can get her home care support package to enable her to go home to her family. She is desperate to be home with her family. She is 18 years of age and her family are desperate to have her home. There is a local campaign to get her home for Christmas. We want to have her home for Christmas.
