I usually keep twitter for business but this injustice gets to me. Going through cancer treatment is tough, even tougher with a new born baby. New mothers should have a right to defer their maternity leave when fighting for their lives. #LeaveourLeave

[Irish Cancer Society @IrishCancerSoc]

Every year in Ireland 60 women go through a cancer diagnosis while pregnant or postpartum, they're not allowed to defer maternity leave

Help us end the injustice that prevents women deferring their maternity leave to get cancer treatment.
