Letters to the editor: I thought I moved on, but buried my past

A plaque remembering the babies, women, and girls on the Greenway between Rochestown and Blackrock near the walk walk over the Southlink motorway at back Bessborough house in Cork.

I was in a mother and baby home in 1987, Dunboyne Good Shepherd Convent. My experience was a good experience. I was treated with respect and kindness.
