A woman who was in Cork’s Bessborough Mother and Baby Home in 1975 has
described the nuns who ran the institution as “evil monsters”.
She was made sign adoption forms to give up her child despite being under the legal age of consent. The woman, who still lives in Cork and asks not to be identified, is still in possession of a calendar given to her on entering the institution, where she marked off the months she stayed.
