The Story of My Adopted Daughter Lucy

Foster carer Cathy Glass shares the true story of bringing eleven-year-old Lucy into her family home. Lucy endured neglect and severe distress after moving through multiple temporary foster homes following an abusive early childhood. Cathy and her children work patiently to break through Lucy's defenses, restore her trust, and help her catch up emotionally and academically. Their bond eventually deepens, leading Cathy to formally adopt Lucy as her own daughter.
