The pair lived together in increasingly difficult circumstances sometimes staying in women’s refuges. Social services were called when a violent boyfriend stabbed her mother and this is when Kerry was taken into care. “Some of Mum’s boyfriends used to beat the crap out of her and me. One night a row started. This particular bloke slapped Mum and I saw blood spurting from her. She screamed and then he turned on me. I saw the flash of a knife blade and I thought he was going to kill me.”
