Great grandparents looking to the future as they receive their Covid 19 Vaccine in Waterford

It’s been a very happy 24 hours for Waterford couple Nick and Marie Murphy.
This morning, Tuesday 2nd March, Nick and Marie of Hillview, Waterford both received their Covid 19 vaccine at the Keogh Practice in the Waterford Primary Care Centre, John’s Hill, Waterford.
Nick and Marie’s status in life happily changed between getting their appointments last week and presenting today to be given the vaccine.
Yesterday, on Monday 1st March, Nick and Marie were delighted to receive news of their first great grandchild being born at University Hospital Waterford.

Happy parents Gavin Burke (Nick and Marie Murphy’s grandson) and Hazel Green welcomed a baby boy on what was St. David’s Day. Gavin and Hazel confirmed that the new arrival will be called David (which also remembers Nick and Marie’s late son David).
Nick and Marie were brought along for their appointment by their daughter Susan Murphy. Susan, who is Gavin’s mum and is also delighted to become a grandmother for the first time, is the HSE/South East Community Healthcare organisation’s Primary Care Lead.
Nick and Marie Murphy are looking forward to brighter days ahead that will enable them to see all of their now extended family, are very thankful for the opportunity to receive their Covid vaccine and are encouraging everyone to avail of it when their opportunity to do so comes along.
