Saoírse's mum praised everyone who made her daughter's dream come true, including Ryan Tubridy.
"We are so grateful to everyone who helped make this happen, @instatubridy @aerlingus @latelaterte @maldrondublinairport @premierchauffeurdrive @dublinairport and everyone we met along the way.
"We are even more grateful to we get to experience this amazing holiday through our brave kind soul Saoírse," her mum wrote.
"Stay tuned for lots of fun while we take you along with us to the lost magic place DisneyWorld Florida."

"So excited that you are getting this opportunity to make memories," one added.
