A chairde,
Is cúis an-tabhachtach é seo. In a couple of weeks I’ll be taking part in a swim along with many others in the freezing cold sea! The challenge is to swim for five minutes from every county around Ireland with a coast- 17 counties in two days. This is all to help Pádraig Schäler, who remains in a coma after an accident during his J1 last summer. He is now receiving intensive treatment in Germany because there aren’t the necessary resources to help him with his recovery in Ireland.
All proceeds go to the Caring for Padraig fund, administered by a Committee independent of the family.
Padraig Schaler, a 2013 TCD graduate from Glasnevin, Dublin, acquired a very severe brain injury when he was hit by a van on 27 June 2013 as he cycled to work on Cape Cod. Nobody was ever prosecuted.
He is now living with his family in Dublin. He requires 24-hour care and is fully dependent.
