Inspirational teen Walsh passes away
Kerry teenager Donal Walsh has passed away after losing his battle with cancer.
The youngster rose to prominence after a recent appearance on RTÉ's Saturday Night Show, where he not only spoke bravely on his battle with illness but delivered a strong message on the issue of teen suicide.
Donal from Blennerville, Tralee was a sport fantastic and had received messages of support from a host of stars both at home and abroad including New Zealand’s Dan Carter.
Very sad to hear of the passing of an inspirational young man Donal Walsh. My thoughts and prayers are with his friends and family #RIPDonal
