Belfast woman's plea after mum stuck on hospital ward in Malta

A West Belfast woman has hailed family, friends and strangers for supporting their fundraiser to bring her mum home from Malta.

Rosaleen McIlroy, who is from the Lower Falls area, has been in hospital there since Christmas Eve after taking a fall. Now her only way of getting back home, is via an Air Ambulance due to her need for oxygen.
