Today is #AdopteeRemembranceDay

A day to remember adoptees who’ve died by suicide, endured abuse, those who suffer unseen battles & those who suffer adoption trauma.
Today is my Day!
#CSA
#Adoptees deserve to be seen & heard every day, not just today!

I’ve mulled over whether to clarify a situation for almost a month now.
An advocate for #Bessboro intentionally ‘outed’ my identity on a private FB group, they vindictively mentioned a Campaign that my twitter profile was attached to.

According to Institutional Burials Act 2022, Section 8, which refers to ‘Manifestly Inappropriate Burials’ all of the highlighted subsections apply to #Bessboro
The government is not above the law.
The government must be compelled to act

Please support & attend the #Bessboro Commemoration, I want the remaining grounds of Bessboro saved.
To date our government have refused to preserve the remaining grounds, a place of sanctuary for all survivors of Bessboro

On Sunday 29th June I will attend the annual #Bessboro Commemoration.
In 2017 I discovered I was born there, I was handed over to my adoptive parents at 7 weeks old. Despite having a loving father my childhood was marred by a detached & controlling mother

Many of you may wonder why #adoptees are so angry at the >6 month rule that excludes them from the #financialredress of the #motherandbabyhome scheme.
This is the medical report that prospective adoptive parents had to get from their GP after 1970.

Hit the road for a couple of nights away on my own, finally got to meet up with @queenofthecraic.bsky.social
She’s as bonkers as myself 😂.
She gave me this beautiful 🦋 mug ❤️

Recently I had to have a very difficult conversation with a relation about the effects of #EnduringTrauma
The relation is now the person who must make the decisions for an adult survivor of #CSA who has been deemed mentally incapable.

The path from the Folly to #Bessborough House.
I used to find this area so calming & visited it often to reflect & remember all those who didn’t survive.
The Folly has become a place for teenagers to hang out & play music, not a sanctuary for me anymore 😞

In the mid 90’s I was living in England. I became pregnant & I wanted to move back home to Ireland.
I phoned my parents, my mothers reaction -
“If you darken our door we will send you to #Bessboro. We did everything to rid you of your engrained genes, you’ve brought shame on us,

There are people on BlueSky that often reach out & check in on me.
1 of them is @ansafiak.bsky.social despite her own struggles she thinks of others, now she’s a bit bold too as I warned her not to send me anything but she has her own stubborn mind 😂.
Thank you so much you bold Aneta 😘 xx

#ProgrammeForGovernment is 162 pages.
There is only 1 tiny paragraph referencing #MotherandBabyHomes & a small section on #IndustrialSchools
This is insulting for #Survivors
No commitment to changing #RedressScheme
No mention of #Justice for those who are excluded due to the 6 month rule.

Time to reintroduce myself here as I feel invisible 🫥
I advocate for survivors of #CSA, I was abused by my grandfather from the age of 8 until I became pregnant & miscarried at 12.
I also advocate for the remaining #Bessborough #MotherandbabyHome grounds to be preserved.
