Jennifer, is the subject of a photo that’s being widely dubbed as “GAA Sports Photo of the Year”.
“It was just so her. He felt in pain and she wanted to comfort him”.
The words of Donna Malone, who’s daughter, Jennifer, is the subject of a photo that’s being widely dubbed as “GAA Sports Photo of the Year”.
After Kilkenny’s All-Ireland Semi-Final victory at the weekend, Jennifer – who has down syndrome – was seen running onto the field in her black and amber to comfort Waterford’s Pauric Mahony as he lay on the ground.
Speaking to KCLR Live this morning, her mother Donna says the photo really showed what a kind heart she has.
Meanwhile, Jennifer’s hurling hero, Henry Shefflin joined her mother Donna on the show.
King Henry said he met Jennifer through Special Olympic events in Kilkenny and he knows Pauric Mahony would have been comforted by her actions.
