    After a long and challenging journey, we finally have a confirmed diagnosis: Sarcoidosis. While this condition typically affects the lungs, heart, and eyes, in my case it has taken a rare and aggressive form—primarily damaging my bones. Unfortunately, this has brought an end to my building career, as the physical demands and risks are no longer safe for me to manage.

    Moving forward, pain management will be a long-term part of life, and the treatments for Sarcoidosis come with their own difficult side effects. Due to the delay in diagnosis and the progression of the disease, my long-term outlook remains uncertain.

    We’re incredibly grateful for the support we’ve received so far—your kindness has meant the world during an incredibly tough time. Any continued support or encouragement as we navigate this next chapter is deeply appreciated.

    With heartfelt thanks,

    The Keoghan's

  • Update on Will

      17 June 2025

    After a painful few months - physically and emotionally, we finally have an update on Wills condition. Multiple bone marrow biopsy's have ruled out cancer, which is truly wonderful and unbelievable all at the same time. Wills diagnosis is still unclear, however the Dr's are leaning towards a bone condition with the hopes that it is treatable. Controlling Wills' pain has been tricky but with the support of the pain team at the hospital this is better managed. The family wishes to express their heartfelt gratitude and support through what has been a very traumatic and emotional time.
