A Go Fund Me page has been set up to aid the recovery of Alma, Niamh Kinsella, and their sister Ella Hendricken, after they were struck by a BMW in an early-morning incident on the motorway. The BMW was being driven in the wrong direction on the motorway, and the family expressed gratitude for the support they have received.
More than €823,000 has been raised to aid the recovery of Alma, Niamh Kinsella and their sister Ella Hendricken after they were struck by a BMW in an early-morning incident while on their way to a family wedding.
A seven-year-old boy was also taken to hospital after the accident. The BMW, which was being driven in the wrong direction on the motorway, was carrying five teenagers. Niamh and Alma were taken to Tallaght Hospital, while Ella was transferred to St Vincent's Hospital, Dublin. The boy received treatment for serious injuries at the children's hospital in Crumlin.
The sisters have described recent weeks as 'incredibly difficult,' but expressed gratitude for the support they have received.
"We are continuing to take things one day at a time and are getting stronger as the days go by," they said. "We're incredibly grateful for all the kindness, messages and support that have been shown to us and our family," they added. In a statement on a Go Fund Me page set up by a friend, the sisters spoke of their appreciation for the outpouring of kindness shown towards them in recent weeks.
'We wanted to share a short update and, most importantly, say thank you. We are continuing to take things one day at a time and are getting stronger as the days go by. We're incredibly grateful for all the kindness, messages and support that have been shown to us and our family,' they said.
'To every person who has donated, shared the fundraiser, sent a message or simply kept us and our family in your thoughts and prayers: thank you. The generosity and kindness shown to us has been overwhelming, and we are incredibly grateful,' they said. The accident highlights the importance of road safety, and the need for drivers to be aware of their surroundings, especially on motorways.
The incident has raised concerns about the high speeds and reckless behavior of some drivers on the roads. The community has come together to support the family, with many people donating to the Go Fund Me page. The generosity and kindness shown to the family is a testament to the goodness of humanity, and serves as a reminder of the importance of looking out for one another.
It is heart-warming to see the community rally around the family and offer their support. The accident is a tragic reminder of the risks associated with driving, and the importance of being vigilant and cautious on the roads. The hospital staff who treated the family and the seven-year-old boy should be commended for their hard work and dedication, providing top-notch care to those in need.
The accident serves as a wake-up call for all of us to be more mindful of our actions on the roads and to prioritize our safety and the safety of others
