One of the ways I dealt with all of this was by writing a book, In The Name Of My Father.

Actually someone on Medium contacted me and told me I needed to change the title. I didn't! I didn't because it was the perfect title and didn't breach copyright.

When my husband was reading it he asked how I wrote a particular scene. I explained that up until that point I had hidden so much anger away and the scene really wrote itself.

So much stuff that, as a young girl, totally puzzled me and suddenly everything was in place.

I loved the elements of church, as a child, but the fear instilled in us was wrong.
