The survivor saw the letter, written in 1980, for the first time last month. By Órla Ryan Saturday 31 Jul 2021, 12:05 AM 4 hours ago 8,430 Views 0 Comments
A WOMAN WHO received personal documents from the Department of Children says her signature was forged on a letter sent to nuns from a Mother and Baby Home in 1980 thanking them for their help.
Mary maintains she never wrote the letter and was not aware it existed until last month. She believes her late mother wrote the letter, pretending to be her.
A number of religious orders have previously used such letters to show that some women who spent time in mother and baby homes and similar institutions were grateful for the help they received, as noted by the Commission of Investigation’s final report in January.
