My mother, a single mum, brought us to Australia (Western Australia) for a better life. Things were tough! We all had to get jobs and employment now, except my brother who was 11 years old. We were Janet (18), Maureen (15) and Trevor (11).

  • I wish id known my nana Ivy. I only met her once when i was 18 along with my two aunts. So many secrets were kept from me. 21 years later i cry to this day from not knowing my dads family. I miss you nana. Aunty Maureen & Aunty Janet. Love you all.
