This episode, I had my beautiful partner, Christine Newman on the show. We talk together about our story of how we met and became parents. We also talk a little bit about raising a child while we both work full time and how our family have been a huge support in our lives.
In 1988, Anne Gillespie was 18 years old. She was looking forward to embarking on adult life. There was just one problem - her boyfriend of over three years had begun to behave horribly. She decided to end things. Her boyfriend, 22 year old John Gallagher, decided that if Anne would no longer speak to him, he'd kill her. John also shot Anne's mother, Annie. No one could have predicted it, nor could they have known about the 24 years the two families would spend in and out of court. ******** With thanks to our sponsors for this episode: Sign up for professional online counselling at betterhelp.com/mens and get 10% off your first month! ******** Find us on Facebook or Twitter!
