Mary Keane, who was diagnosed with terminal brain cancer in 2023, received a public apology from University Hospital Galway last month for the 'deficiencies in care' that led to the delay in her brain tumour diagnosis, which has since progressed to an aggressive and inoperable grade four.

Ballycroy woman Mary Keane will speak to Sarah McInerney on RTÉ Prime Time this evening.

Last month, University Hospital Galway issued a public apology to Mary, who was diagnosed with terminal brain cancer in 2023, after a series of scans were found to have been allegedly misinterpreted.

On tonight’s show, she will tell the nation about the public apology from University Hospital Galway she received last month for the 'deficiencies in care' that led to the delay in her brain tumour diagnosis, which has since progressed to an aggressive and inoperable grade four.

The Prime Time interview follows on from an interview Mary gave to The Mayo News, which you can read here.

Presenter Sarah McInerney travelled to Westport recently and recorded an interview with Mary and her sister Carmel in the Plaza Hotel in Westport. The show airs tonight on RTÉ One and RTÉ Player at 9.35pm .
