A 68-YEAR-old woman is suing two religious orders and the
HSE over the alleged forced adoption of her four-month-old baby 45 years
ago. She said that at the age of 21, in 1968, she was raped near Howth in
Dublin, became pregnant, and was sent for pre- and post-natal care to St
Patrick's mother and baby home on the Navan Road, Dublin, before giving
birth in March 1969, the High Court heard.
At that time, she had been living and working in the Magdalene Laundry in Drumcondra, Dublin, having already spent most of her life in care.
