Family of young Dubliner who died of cancer vow to complete bucket list in his memory

A Dublin mum has urged people to watch out for symptoms of oesophageal cancer after her husband died following a two-and-a-half year battle - and she has vowed to finish his bucket list with their son.

David McGrath, from Clontarf, passed away last month after being diagnosed with stage four oesophageal cancer in September 2020. The 35-year-old has left behind a bucket list for his wife Amy and their young son Jacob to complete in his memory.

Speaking to Dublin Live, Amy explained that David's symptoms began as a "horrific pain" below his ribcage, but he shrugged it off and didn't go to a doctor straight away.
