VICKY PHELAN has praised students at Mount Sion CBS Secondary School in Waterford and their ‘wonderful teacher’ Colette Kearney for sending her a card since her story broke.
The Limerick woman, whose court action exposed the CervicalCheck scandal, thanked the Waterford students for their card titled ‘Inspirational Cervical Smear Campaign Activist’.
Vicky Phelan recently received an honorary doctorate from the University of Limerick, where she attended and subsequently worked.
I've been getting lots of cards and letters in the post since my story broke. I received this one from the boys in Mount Sion, Waterford and their wonderful teacher @colette_kearney. How about that for a title "Inspirational Cervical Smear Campaign Activist" Thanks Boys Xxx pic.twitter.com/LRC7nThAJV
