TONIGHT: MOYROSS WOMAN ON RTE 1 AT 7.30PM


BY BRENDAN MEEHAN
Tune in to RTE tonight at 7.30pm to see a Moyross native grace your television screens, for all the right reasons.
The new TV series called “A story with me in it”, will feature our very own Eileen Sheehan, who has overcome adversity to learn to read and write.
She concealed her literacy problems for years, but now she has scaled new heights to be top of the class at Corpus Christi National School.
Eileen told the Limerick Chronicle last week: “One of the tutors said to me that they were looking for people to do a documentary, and she said, ‘You’d be perfect for it."
Eileen is now a frequent reader of books and is “engrossed” in her friend Alice Taylor’s “To school through the fields.”
So don’t forget to set your reminders for tonight, and watch Eileen's life-changing story unfold.
