Desperate couple's five children 'praying every night for new house' as eviction looms

A desperate couple’s five children are “praying every night for a new house” after being served with an eviction notice.

Distraught mum Dorina Ros said she breaks down crying in the evenings when she puts her kids to bed and has up to two panic attacks a day over the stress of having to move out by May 1. The 33-year-old said the family’s problems are compounded because one of their kids, Emma, has quadriplegic level four cerebral palsy and epilepsy which causes regular seizures.

She has been in touch with South Dublin County Council who has offered them emergency accommodation in a bed and breakfast. But Dorina, who shares Matei, four, twins Emma and Kivah, three, Medeea, two, and one-year-old Melissa, with her husband Benjamin, stressed this wasn’t a suitable option.
