Megan was born with spina bifida and hydrocephalus, and has undergone eight major operations including high-risk surgery on her head and spine. Her mother Mairead (left) said, 'She's always the first to offer help to anyone in pain. She's kind and patient, putting up with treatment and operations.' Photograph by Michael Melia
