Roy Keane
Roy Maurice Keane (Irish football pundit, former coach, and former professional player) has a daughter named Caragh who was diagnosed with lupus in 2021 aged 25.
Caragh says “I changed my life completely on the back of a shock Lupus diagnosis back in 2021. I went from being the Captain of the St Andrews netball team to being unable to move due to extreme joint pain and struggled with other symptoms such as severe alopecia and blistered skin. I had to rely heavily on steroids and immunosuppressants and had to turn down my dream teaching position at the time. At twenty five years old I thought that my life was over. I could not accept this fate I she started researching everything I could about health and discovered the vital link between diet, inflammation and gut microbiome”.
