So sad to hear of this news today. Such an amazing lady and advocate for the women of Ireland and beyond. Thinking of Vicky and her family today and going into the future. May she rest in peace. 🙏
RIP. Another great loss to society. Yet dismally 🙈, despite her Herculean efforts , Nothing has changed within HSE , no one held accountable for the neglect that triggered her fatal illness.
Rip to a great woman this is the way them amazing woman were treated 💔
RIP
Rest in peace in heaven lovely ladhly.
So said. Compounded by how she was treated by the state. A stain forever on the likes of DonnellyStephen & DrTonyHolohan
Rest in peace

Heartbroken 💔 an amazing woman
😞😞 RIP Vicky
So sad. She was an exceptional woman ❤️
So very sad. Her work on patient advocacy over the last few years has been inspirational. Every woman in Ireland owes Vicky a debt of gratitude. RIP.
Will be remembered for her bravery and brilliance xx
What a lady, RIP Vicky As time went on people seem to forget how these women and their families were so tragically let down by this current government and the HSE, people forget that this government stood over this scandal but yet they still there, same incompetent wasters
You could at least get her date of birth right. As on you had on the One news that she was 48 yet somehow she was only born in 76. She was born in 74. Someone got there maths wrong. Maybe they should go back to school. May she Rest In Peace.
Absolutely heartbroken at this news today. Having experienced the horrific women's health services in this country she was an absolute warrior fighting the system. May she rest in peace, she is at peace now.
RIP Vicky!
😰
So sad may she rest in peace 🙏
God this news is so sad, she was such a force and so strong we thought this day would never come. She was badly let down by our health service. And only for her it would have all been brushed under the carpet. Rest in peace Vicky and strength to you family x
sorry
She was so grounded and focused in her campaign despite fighting for her life, literally. What an awful lot of tragedy in her short life and the cruelty of knowing she need not have died. Hoping her legacy will bring better health & good fortune to those who come after her. RIP
Heartbreaking. An incredible woman.
Most sickening this is, you will have the scumbags of politicians that will try turn up at this brave woman's funeral for limelight. May Vicky Rest In Peace, thoughts are with her family in this tragic time.

RIP Vicky. Where are all the clapping seals for DrTonyHolohan now? Hypocrites.
So very very sad.
Terrible news. Never forget while FineGael and their courtiers are crying about Sinn Fein, FG allowed this scandal to happen and continue to put families through hell and nobody has ever been held responsible.
