Speaking to this newspaper, the Belfast resident said: “It’s been a tough few days for us with our baby son being in hospital, but it was great to see Conor on the ward this afternoon (Tuesday) and taking the time to come round and see all the young patients.
"He’s had an amazing campaign for Northern Ireland and for him to come to the hospital, so soon after helping Michael O’Neill’s side gain promotion to League B, it just shows his character.”
The Castlederg native has made six Premier League appearances for Liverpool this season.
