What a beautiful soul, such empathy & understanding, even towards her own abusers after such a tough childhood. A lovely person all over with a simple message of equality at the end. I would say she was a fantastic mother.

An inspiring woman she has such amazing strength. Such a sad story but she didn’t allow her past to define her nor does she carry bitterness. ❤❤❤

You are a remarkable woman. I’m so sorry you were taken from your foster family and sent to that convent. To think you walked such a distance as a young child when you escaped shows an inner strength most people don’t have. I’m glad you meet good people along the way who were kind to you. I must say you look very well for your age and I hope life is being good to you now. You’re a lovely lady and thank you for sharing your story xx

I started learning about this before I had children and it hurt my heart, now having 3 little children my heart hurts even more.

Diane, you are a star. ALL YOUNG WOMEN need to hear about your horrendous experienced so they do not take their own emancipation for granted. Take care Diane. You are terrific.

A remarkable woman, you know it’s very sad that because of a few bad apples (which you’ll get in every sector around the world) Everyone is pretty much tarred with the same brush. There are many good members in the clergy, and just like the travellers. It’s very sad that still writing with the left hand is frowned upon, I remember having to have a quiet word with my youngest daughters teachers for trying to force them too to write with their right hand. That was eighteen years ago, I hope it’s different today. x

This church is a monster. These poor people.

I understand being left handed. The nuns at school leathered me all the time because I’m left handed. Evil witches.

Those nuns are in hell
