Sinead O'Connor - The Funeral

"He has this mad thing where he's convinced he's going to die in three years. I keep laughing. He asked me to marry him on the first date. He said, 'Because I'll need you to do this, that, with my ashes.' We're working out the funeral every day. He's completely and utterly nuts in a very safe way. I'm having a great time."

In the series of raging tweets she shared, Sinead O'Connor railed against Child and Adolescent Mental Health Services (CAMHS) for discharging her 17-year old son just one month before he died by suicide. Despite being aware of the fact that Shane O'Connor, 17, had prepared detailed funeral plans, CAMHS, in addition to other authorities 'failed' him.

17-year-old Shane O'Connor was found dead two weeks ago, with the teenager's funeral taking place at the end of last week. Ryan assured his listeners that Sinéad is doing 'as well as possible under the circumstances.'

This will be followed by members of the public who can take part by wearing some period dress and become part of what was described in 1915 as "a veritable march of triumph". 781b155fdc
