Halfway through his first semester, Noel and his partner Nicole found out that they were expecting a baby. During Nicole’s pregnancy, doctors discovered that their baby had developed a cleft lip and a hole in his heart. During Noel’s second year, little Oscaír was born with scoliosis, butterfly vertebrae, floating ribs, a missing set of ribs, a dysplastic thumb, a cleft lip and palate, heart problems and is profoundly deaf. Due to his cleft and his heart conditions, Oscaír was unable to feed on his own and had to be fed using an oral-gastric tube. He was eventually admitted to the children’s heart ward to await open heart surgery. After the first semester of second year, Noel decided to take a break from his studies. He and Nicole then lived on the heart ward for almost three months while Oscaír waited for surgery and then recovered. Within the first two years of Oscaír’s life he received five surgeries. Despite all of this and numerous stays in hospital, Noel returned to Queen’s after taking one year off. Today, Noel Kehoe is graduating with a First Class Honours in MSci Physics and has accepted a PhD position in the Centre for Light-Matter Interactions with Professor Marco Borghesi. Noel and Nicole also managed to squeeze in a wedding – they got married last year and are now expecting a second child in August. “My wife, Nicole, has been incredibly supportive throughout my studies and I most definitely would not be in the position I am today without her support or motivation. “I am looking forward to my future at Queen’s. I will now have more freedom around the campus and potentially be able to mentor groups of physics students who are starting their journey through physics.” Congratulations Noel! You definitely are a First-Class dad! Read Noel’s full story here: https://t.co/2R0wXsepVC #LoveQUBGrad | @QUBMathsPhys

@DaveOCKOP In 5 years £120M for Bellingham will seem like nothing. Caicedo is decent but i dont see him making an impact like Bellingham would. An instant impact is what we need not just a solid midfielder! In all honesty we should be going for both.
