Maia Dunphy has thanked emergency services for rushing her sick son to hospital.
The mother-of-one took to Twitter to reveal that her son Tom’s temperature soared in the night and he had to be taken to hospital.
“Well that was a grim night,” she began the thread.
“Couldn’t get Tom’s temperature down and ended up in Crumlin via ambulance at 4am…”

She went on to thank the “immeasurably patient and kind men of @DubFireBrigade who turned up to help a frazzled mum in embarrassing pjs…”
She then added kind words about the staff of Crumlin hospital before cursing the helpless panic she was in and explained it was made worse as Tom’s father and her husband, Johnny Vegas is away.
The broadcaster revealed to followers in later tweets that Tom is suffering Croup and another viral infection but is now doing well.
It’s a shitty, helpless panic isn’t it? Made worse by being on my own at the moment, but everyone was so lovely last night. Hope Bean’s ok.X
