The family of Aslan singer Christy Dignam has announced he's receiving palliative care.

The 62-year-old has been at home with his family for the past month after being treated at Beaumont Hospital by the Haematology and Cardiac Care team.

The Dignam family has asked for privacy while asking to keep the singer in people's thoughts.

The family has released this statement today: "Christy & Kathryn Dignam and their family, daughter Kiera, son in law Darren, and grandchildren, are sharing an update on Christy’s health.

"In July 2022, Christy was admitted to Beaumont Hospital and spent the next six months in the care of the Haematology and Cardiac Care team.

"Since December, Christy has been at home and is being cared for lovingly by family, with the support of a palliative care team.

"The Dignam family thanks everyone for keeping Christy in their thoughts and prayers and asks for privacy at this time. "
