Former RTE broadcaster discharged from hospital after freak accident and two surgeries

Former RTE broadcaster and author Gareth O'Callaghan has been discharged from hospital nearly three weeks after he sustained serious injuries to his hands after a freak accident while he was taking his bins out for collection outside his house.

Mr O'Callaghan, who is also a qualified psychotherapist, needed to undergo two operations on his hands in the days after he was hospitalised.

His wife Paula O'Callaghan posted on Twitter following his discharge yesterday afternoon that it was "the best -- he's home" present she had ever received.
