PT1: ESCAPE FROM THE MAGDALENE LAUNDRY, DIANE CROGHAN SHARES HER INCREDIBLE STORY – Blog

Happy Days
Such a beautiful woman with a lovely heart. So very shocking what she endured during her young life. I hope that she had a happy life thereafter, she deserved nothing less. I hope that the other young woman survived, how lovely it would be if they were reunited. Big hugs for you Diane. Your goodness shines through! xx

What a truly remarkable lady. The bravery to run away into the unknown without as much as a penny in her hand and to endure what she did before that without a hint of bitterness now.

When this lovely lady was on about putting the sheets through the calander my mother was watching this with me I ask her what it was she told me it was a big machine that you put the sheets through to press them as she spent four years in a covent From 69 to 74 in Manchester from the age of 12 till she was nearly 17

I know the story from a Joni Mitchell song & then I found this story. So very sad.

I’m a catholic and I’m angry with these evil nuns of course but we have good nuns who became saints. They also suffered from some evil nuns in the convent.

Why would her mama leave her….she probably endured so much in the foster home too. So little. 8 years old.
