Publisher Description
'I feel my story had to be told. So much evil was done there was a voice inside me shouting, "Justice".'
With no one to confide in, Kathy suffered in silence as she was battered by her father and molested by local boys.
At the age of eight, she was torn from her family and incarcerated in a series of Catholic homes. When she was sent to a psychiatric unit, she suffered terrifying electric- shock therapy and further cruelty at the hands of her supposed carers.
After ending up in a Magdalen laundry, she fell victim to sexual abuse and gave birth to baby Annie just weeks before her fourteenth birthday. Don't Ever Tell is Kathy's harrowing account of her ruined childhood and of her subsequent fight for justice.

Don't ever tell
An absolutely heart breaking read from start to finish.
Heartbreaking but a privilege to read
It is disgusting what they did to Kathy and so many other young innocent girls back in the 1970s. Higher people such as the government, teachers and doctors should of notice something cruel and evil was happening! They should of done something about it! Instead they turned a blind eye and looked the other way. *Cough* COWARDS... I am reading Kathy's remarkable experience through mindless thin papers which must of felt like Cancer to her, a monster taking other her life and killing her off slowly. In today's world (2014) there is indeed so much evil still. Everything is corrupted from the government to the police, the media even! Where does it stop? Celebrities too e.g. Jimmy, Harris and so many others which are yet to be announced. Something has to be done. Otherwise we will continue to destroy this world and victims lives. And so many victims have suffered.. Why allow more to suffer? Why???
- This isn't a book for kids but instead a insight into the darkness of religion and broken down systems. Kathy's story must be heard/read. You won't be disappointed.
