Kilkenny hurling legend, Henry Sheflin and his wife Deirdre spoke about a tragic accident which happened to their young son last summer.

6-yr-old Henry Jr unfortunately got his foot caught in his father’s drive-on lawnmower in May 2016 and lost four toes and a piece of his foot.

After major surgeries, young Henry has thankfully recovered very well and it’s easy to say that the audience both live and watching were delighted to hear it.

The couple spoke about how the family had to re-adjust to new life and have a much better life afterwards.

Shefflin said he may like to one day be the Kilkenny manager.
