Paul Mescal’s cancer-stricken mother is set to return to hospital for an MRI after unexplained pain – but reveals positive news about her recovery.
Dearbhla, a member of An Garda Siochana, is battling multiple myeloma, which is a type of bone marrow cancer that often affects several areas of the body; such as the spine, skull, pelvis and ribs.
The mum-of-three has been documenting her battle on social media and revealed good news to fans – but she is being scheduled for a scan after experiencing some unexplained pain.
"So I’ve just finished in the hospital. I’ve to go for an MRI. Date to be confirmed, but that’s okay.
"Bloods done, all still really good numbers so very, very happy about that part and we’ll get to the root of the pain but it’s so wonderful to be cared for by this amazing team."
She later updated followers that she was back home and feeling "less anxious" over the pain she has been experiencing.
"I’m home and feeling less anxious. I know we will get to the root of it, which is really good. I've made my sandwich, I’ve lit the fire, I can see my roses and my birds and my tree and this is me.
"I’m now going to settle and I hope for all of you that need to be heard that you get heard, that would be my hope for us all – that our voices are heard and if your voice can’t be heard that there is somebody advocating for you to be heard."
"I think that is really important," she added.
Dearbhla previously said her illness has made her learn so much about "who I am on this planet" and "where I want to go in my life after all of this."
