 Helen Rees - separated and reunited with her baby
Following on from last week's discussion on foundlings, Woman's Hour listener, Helen Rees talks about her experience of being separated from her baby son.
In 1960 Helen was a pregnant and unmarried 18-year-old. She had to give up her baby son to the Thomas Coram Foundation, but was reunited with him two-and-a-half years later. She explains why she considers herself one of the lucky ones.
