Ireland to Rome

Monday 3rd March marks World Hearing Day.  I recently collaborated with my Italian surgeon and Otology specialist Dr Italo Cantore along with UPMC Salvator Mundi International hospital in Rome, Italy in documenting my hearing loss journey. 

I am sharing this video here on social media to raise awareness to those who might be in a similar situation as I was or indeed who might know someone who is battling with hearing loss.

I am indebted to my surgeon Dr Italo Cantore. Not only is he incredibly gifted in his medical field, he is so professional, very empathetic and a true gentleman. 

He has hugely improved my quality of life in all aspects of my life- the ordinary, domestic, social, professional and above all my music 🎶. 

I am so very privileged to have him as my surgeon and Otology specialist.

I experienced a turbulent two years with ENT consultants in Ireland… but that was all part of my journey and I believe it was providence that led me to Dr Cantore in Rome and I am enormously grateful and very thankful to him. 

Please feel free to share this video should you wish. It might serve as a gentle nudge of encouragement to someone struggling with hearing loss who feels there is little or no hope for them or indeed for the person who is apprehensive or nervous of undergoing surgery. 

Happy World Hearing day lovely people 😊

❤️🙏🏻🇮🇹👂🏻

Ag Críost an Síol – Pečenice, Slovakia

The Late Romanesque parish church of Pečenice in Slovakia is dedicated to the Assumption of the Virgin Mary and dates from the mid-13th century.

Ag Críost an Síol is composed by Seán O Riada and is sung and played by Julianne Woods on Sunday 27th October 2024 in Pečenice, Slovakia

“Ag Críost an Síol 

”Christ’s is the seed”is an Irish poem set to music by Seán Ó Riada and subsequently widely used as a hymn. 

The poem is said to have been written by Fr. Michael Meehan (Micheál Ó Míocháin) (1810-1878), long time Parish Priest of the parishes of Moyarta and Kilballyowen in County Clare.

Text:
Ag Críost an síol, ag Críost an fómhar; 


i n-iothlainn Dé go dtugtar sinn. 


Ag Críost an mhuir, ag Críost an t-iasc; 


i líonta Dé go gcastar sinn. 



Ó fhás go h-aois, is ó aois go bás, 


do dhá láimh, a Chríost, anall tharainn. 


Ó bhás go críoch, ní críoch ach athfhás, 


i bParthas na ngrás go rabhaimid. 



English translation 



Christ’s is the seed,

Christ’s is the crop, 


in the barn of God may we be brought. 


Christ’s is the sea,

Christ’s is the fish, 


in the nets of God may we be caught. 



From growth to age, from age to death, 


Thy two arms, O Christ, about us. 


From death to end, not end but growth, 
in blessed Paradise may we be
