Woman 'sold' to US family as baby from home for unmarried mothers reveals her heartbreaking upbringing

An Irish woman who was 'sold' to an American family as an infant from a mother and baby home has spoken of her harrowing upbringing. Kathleen Sullivan, 63, was 'bought' by her adoptive family for £10,000 from one of Ireland's largest homes for unmarried mothers, St Patrick's in Dublin. Now she fears that she will never find her original Irish family . In 1955, when she was just 15 months old, she was sent to the US, but she had already suffered severe physical and emotional problems at the home and those same issues still plague her to this day.
