Activist Vicky Phelan spent her long weekend enjoying time with her family in Co. Clare, confessing it was “lovely.” She visited some of her favourite spots like the beach and a local coffee shop.
But she also shared the challenges she was facing, giving an update on her health.
Revealing to her followers on Instagram; “While it has been lovely to get down here and to get down on the beach, it is also so hard at times because I can’t walk the beach.”
“I am just about getting down there and I need to rest after every time I exert myself. ”

Confessing she was experiencing a lot of back pain on the trip, saying; “My back is just not cooperating.”
However the Limerick woman shared how grateful she was for the improvements in her health, she’d seen recently.
Sharing; “BUT I know I am in a better place than 6 weeks ago when I was confined to a chair. It just gets to me at times that I can no longer walk my favourite beach and that I need help tying my shoes and other stupid little things that get to me…”
Finishing off by writing; “Apologies for the rant. It has been a lovely weekend overall and once I am with the people I love, that’s all that really matters, isn’t it.”
