Christy Dignam has revealed his daughter's birth was the happiest moment of his life as he continues to receive end of life care.
The comments were made in a touching interview with RTE's Ryan Tubridy in the front room of his Dublin home where he is receiving palliative care. The Aslan singer has been unwell for 10 years after he was diagnosed with amyloidosis, a rare blood disorder that is associated with certain cancers.
The Crazy World singer also spoke about how he wants his funeral to go and the happiest and saddest times of his life. There have been tough times as Christy faces the end of his life which can send him into negative "spirals".
