Description
A heart-wrenching and honest account of an adoption breakdown, told by Karen Carr, the adoptive mother. This is her story of what went wrong over four years, without blame or apology.
From the final court hearing to the early days of Lucy's return to local authority care, Karen reflects on the events that led to this outcome. She shares a poignant picture of her daughter at the centre of it all, and the struggles they faced together.
This is a story of loss, regret, but also courage, generosity, and self-discovery - a powerful exploration of what happens when an adoption breaks down.
