Tommie Gorman RTE Northern Editor RIP

Was he sick? Didn't think he was particularly old.
A Sligo man I think.

Tommie Gorman RTE Northern Editor RIP

Was he sick? Didn't think he was particularly old.
A Sligo man I think.

He has had cancer for 30 years and received specialist treatment for it in Sweden back years ago, which he spoke about in a programme.

He was from Sligo, and I always found him interesting.

30 years?! I heard of something like a dozen with mesothelioma in the stomach but 30 is some number of years to survive with cancer but guess it depends what kind it is.

Serious concerns over the hospital care of former Arsenal and Everton footballer Kevin Campbell have been flagged up by a health trust, an inquest has heard.
Mr Campbell, 54, died at Manchester Royal Infirmary (MRI) on 15 June after being admitted a month earlier.
Coroner Zak Golombek said Manchester University NHS Foundation Trust, which manages the hospital, had declared a Level 5 patient safety incident - the most serious category - about aspects of his care.
He said the provisional cause of death given for Mr Campbell was multi-organ failure due to a heart infection.

No family members were present at Manchester Coroner's Court as Mr Golombek outlined background details during Thursday's inquest opening.
He said that Mr Campbell had been admitted to MRI on 15 May.
"He had been reported to have been fit and well until around January 2024, when he had a number of admissions to hospital before this final admission," the coroner said.
Mr Golombek said the health trust declared a Level 5 incident related to a delay in aspects of Mr Campbell's care and diagnosis, and concerns over decision-making processes about palliative care.

Mr Golombek said the trust was conducting internal investigations and there would be extra evidence including the investigation report, witness statements from clinicians and a statement from Mr Campbell's next of kin.
He said: "I have also received notification from the trust that a medical cause of death can be offered and, therefore, I will consider evidence from the clinicians involved in Mr Campbell's care as to the cause of his death.
"The provisional cause of death, as it stands, refers to Mr Campbell dying from multi-organ failure as a result of infective endocarditis."
Infective endocarditis is a rare infection of the inner lining or valves of the heart.
It can be very serious and sometimes fatal.
It is most commonly caused by bacteria entering the bloodstream from elsewhere in the body and sticking to heart valves.
Mr Golombek said final determinations on the medical cause of death and the care received by Mr Campbell "will be made as part of the inquest process".
Proceedings have been adjourned for a hearing at a later date.
'Life and soul of every party'
Mr Campbell's 24-year-old son Tyrese, who plays for Stoke City, tweeted at the time of his father's death that "the pain of this is indescribable and as a son you look at your dad as invincible".
"He was the life and soul of every party and room he blessed, a one-in-a-million person that was loved by everyone."
Kevin Campbell scored 148 goals in 542 appearances in a career involving eight clubs.
He won four major trophies with Arsenal and also played for Everton, Leyton Orient, Leicester, Nottingham Forest, Trabzonspor, Cardiff and West Bromwich Albion.

Former Inter county manager John O'Mahony.

[GaillimhIarthair]

Very sad news this morning on the passing of former Galway, Mayo & Leitrim manager, John O'Mahoney.  He brought a lot of great days for all 3 counties and will always be held in high esteem here in Galway.

Ar dheis Dé go raibh a anam.

[Truthsayer]

I was at the 1998 and 2001 All Ireland finals: that Galway team played a great brand of football. Taking Leitrim to win the 1994 Connaught title (first since 1927) was possibly his greatest achievement. May he Rest In Peace.
