Catriona O’Brien, known as Tee to her friends, was recently diagnosed with a rare, incurable, muscle-wasting illness, motor neurone disease, that is slowly robbing her independence and ability to walk, speak, and even breathe.
In an attempt to make the most of her remaining mobility, Catriona and her amazing support group have organized a black tie fundraising ball in the Radisson Blu Hotel Galway on Saturday September 6. The event is to raise money for Catriona’s bucket-list, which includes a helicopter spin, and visiting a butterfly zoo.
The committee has organised a ball that includes a three-course meal, live music and entertainment provided by Shadow Play and Rofi James, after party with DJ Joe Love on the decks, and lots of spot prizes up for grabs.
To help Catriona’s friends and family raise the money needed to make her dreams a reality, and to raise further awareness about motor neurone check out Tee’s Bucket List Ball on Facebook for more information, and share with friends and family.
Tickets cost €80, and are available to purchase from La Maison Chic, Lower Abbeygate Street, or The Radisson Blu Hotel, Lough Atalia Road. The Radisson Blu Hotel is offering a special discount rate for B&B bookings for those attending the event. Book now to avail 091-538300.
