00:00:24,160 --> 00:00:27,120
Speaker 3: Here you going right tell us the story.

12
00:00:28,040 --> 00:00:31,200
Speaker 1: Okay, so this is back in the sixties. My father

13
00:00:31,320 --> 00:00:33,920
Speaker 1: was in the army. He was there at Moorbank. Mum

14
00:00:34,120 --> 00:00:38,760
Speaker 1: was already had two happy baby girls. Early on she

15
00:00:38,880 --> 00:00:41,640
Speaker 1: was obviously pregnant. Went to the hospital. Dad got the

16
00:00:41,680 --> 00:00:46,080
Speaker 1: telephone call your baby like your boss getting into labor.

17
00:00:46,640 --> 00:00:49,199
Speaker 1: So he got there a couple of hours later and

18
00:00:49,520 --> 00:00:55,440
Speaker 1: was well, sorry, your wife and baby have gone into labor. Well, sorry,

19
00:00:55,600 --> 00:00:59,120
Speaker 1: wife's gotten into labor, baby's born and they are both

20
00:00:59,400 --> 00:01:03,920
Speaker 1: fine and her So two hours later Dad finally got

21
00:01:03,960 --> 00:01:07,399
Speaker 1: released from the army and got to the hospital and

22
00:01:07,440 --> 00:01:10,160
Speaker 1: when he got there they said the baby was in

23
00:01:10,160 --> 00:01:12,520
Speaker 1: the birthing ward. Went to the birthing ward and no

24
00:01:12,640 --> 00:01:16,640
Speaker 1: baby went upstairs. No baby went downstairs. No baby left

25
00:01:16,720 --> 00:01:22,800
Speaker 1: right center, no baby, no baby, no baby. So yeah, dad,

26
00:01:23,040 --> 00:01:26,240
Speaker 1: by the time, well mum saw the baby born taken

27
00:01:26,240 --> 00:01:29,040
Speaker 1: away to the birthing wood and Dad never ever got

28
00:01:29,040 --> 00:01:33,959
Speaker 1: to see his baby girl. What happened, Well, apparently the

29
00:01:34,040 --> 00:01:36,039
Speaker 1: story goes, so what were you told?

30
00:01:36,080 --> 00:01:37,240
Speaker 3: What were you told?

31
00:01:38,080 --> 00:01:43,560
Speaker 1: The baby apparently had passed away died of complications, but

32
00:01:43,640 --> 00:01:46,959
Speaker 1: Dad said, hang on, it was born quite healthy. What's

33
00:01:47,000 --> 00:01:51,720
Speaker 1: the problem follow these stories? So then you know, we

34
00:01:52,200 --> 00:01:54,320
Speaker 1: got angry. Try to threaten to punch on one out

35
00:01:54,320 --> 00:01:58,960
Speaker 1: lock you would, and then got thrown out. And then

36
00:02:01,120 --> 00:02:03,240
Speaker 1: a couple of months later we were all boiled over.

37
00:02:04,120 --> 00:02:05,960
Speaker 1: Your baby died. You don't get over it. He got

38
00:02:05,960 --> 00:02:08,600
Speaker 1: a death certificate and he said, well, I never saw

39
00:02:08,639 --> 00:02:10,840
Speaker 1: the baby, so you can go stick that in your

40
00:02:10,840 --> 00:02:13,720
Speaker 1: pocket and then that's just how it was. I'll get

41
00:02:13,760 --> 00:02:16,720
Speaker 1: over it. Your baby died. And it wasn't until the

42
00:02:16,840 --> 00:02:20,040
Speaker 1: nineties and then there was a court case happened. The

43
00:02:20,080 --> 00:02:24,120
Speaker 1: whole birthing ward were in cohotes with each other and

44
00:02:24,160 --> 00:02:25,600

Speaker 1: This is ye sixty we suspect she was involved in

48
00:02:38,440 --> 00:02:43,200
Speaker 1: his baby selling racket. So you can, yeah, the doctors,

49
00:02:43,200 --> 00:02:46,200
Speaker 1: the nurses, everyone on the ward, they were all they're

50
00:02:46,240 --> 00:02:49,000
Speaker 1: all in on this and they're taking the babies and

51
00:02:49,040 --> 00:02:50,440
Speaker 1: selling them. Wow.

52
00:02:51,280 --> 00:02:53,960
Speaker 2: So you have a sister that's eleven years older than

00:02:54,000 --> 00:02:57,480
Speaker 2: you that you don't know maybe, Yeah, has.

54
00:02:57,400 --> 00:02:59,760
Speaker 3: Your family, your dad and your mom, have they always

55
00:02:59,800 --> 00:03:05,280
Speaker 3: been believe that she was still alive? Yes, Mark, absolutely,

56
00:03:06,440 --> 00:03:09,160
Speaker 3: And even after in the nineties when this court case happened,

57
00:03:09,360 --> 00:03:11,959
Speaker 3: there was no recourse you could use, no paper trail, nothing.

58
00:03:12,320 --> 00:03:14,799
Speaker 1: Well no, well, let's back in the sixty years it

59
00:03:14,880 --> 00:03:19,519
Speaker 1: would you know, there's no paper trayal that that apparently

60
00:03:20,080 --> 00:03:22,919
Speaker 1: did not even touch the disk certificate. So they don't

61
00:03:22,919 --> 00:03:26,040
Speaker 1: even have that on my birth certificate. That's got my

62
00:03:27,560 --> 00:03:31,600
Speaker 1: sister's name, Barbara Fay in her year of birth or

63
00:03:31,680 --> 00:03:33,160
Speaker 1: date of birth, but that's it.

64
00:03:33,639 --> 00:03:37,720
Speaker 2: There's no Well that's amazing. So and you look at

65
00:03:37,760 --> 00:03:39,800
Speaker 2: the paper trail, there wouldn't be a PayPal trailer there

66
00:03:39,840 --> 00:03:42,400
Speaker 2: because they would have covered it up. So the lady

67
00:03:42,480 --> 00:03:44,920
Speaker 2: that is your sister could be alive now and would

68
00:03:45,160 --> 00:03:46,800
Speaker 2: not even be aware that.

69
00:03:46,960 --> 00:03:50,280
Speaker 1: Could that happened, could be listening to W seven right

70
00:03:50,360 --> 00:03:51,680
Speaker 1: now and she wouldn't even know it.

71
00:03:52,440 --> 00:03:55,320
Speaker 3: No, and your poor parents for all those years.

72
00:03:57,120 --> 00:04:00,080
Speaker 2: Yeah, well, wow, Mark, it's amazing.

Speaker 3: Wow. I know, but it's just wow.

76
00:04:07,160 --> 00:04:07,840
Speaker 2: It's uncanny.

77
00:04:08,040 --> 00:04:08,800
Speaker 3: It is it is.

78
00:04:09,080 --> 00:04:09,640
Speaker 1: This is recent.

79
00:04:09,760 --> 00:04:11,720
Speaker 3: I was born in the sixties. This is to me,

80
00:04:11,840 --> 00:04:16,000
Speaker 3: it's reason history. You know, it's fifty but it could

81
00:04:16,040 --> 00:04:16,800
Speaker 3: be you it's not.

82
00:04:17,200 --> 00:04:19,000
Speaker 2: But what I'm saying is that you wouldn't know.

83
00:04:19,480 --> 00:04:19,960
Speaker 1: You wouldn't know.

84
00:04:20,080 --> 00:04:22,120
Speaker 3: But this is only fifty years ago that this was

85
00:04:22,160 --> 00:04:23,080
Speaker 3: happening in hospital.

86
00:04:24,120 --> 00:04:25,040
Speaker 1: Whoa wow.

87
00:04:25,120 --> 00:04:27,760
Speaker 3: And we're different parents, now, we're different people. We'd have

88
00:04:27,920 --> 00:04:31,239
Speaker 3: we make demands on a hospital and Mark's dad tried

89
00:04:31,240 --> 00:04:33,599
Speaker 3: to by the sound of it. But authority is everything.

90
00:04:33,680 --> 00:04:36,080
Speaker 2: But no one question anything back in those days. These

91
00:04:36,160 --> 00:04:39,240
Speaker 2: days everyone questions everything. Back in those days, no one

92
00:04:39,320 --> 00:04:41,400
Speaker 2: questioned anything. You just did respect what doctor said and

93
00:04:41,480 --> 00:04:42,240
Speaker 2: you went, well, that's it.

94
00:04:42,640 --> 00:04:45,200
