About Me
- Rachael Keogh
- Dublin, Ireland
- I'm a 29-year-old mother of one, college student and drugs survivor from Ballymun in Dublin. I started drinking aged 11 and by the time I was 14 heroin had taken its deadly hold. In 2006 I went public about my drug addiction because I felt there was no other way of getting help. Sky News did a documentary about me and now I've a book coming out about my experiences.

Hello Rachael,
ReplyDeleteI have just finished reading your book, and I have a fight on in the playground who is going to borrow the book from me next, (they should buy there own lol) so your book is proving very popular over here in London too. I have to agree with some of your previous posts that this book really is a must for all parents.
I think the amazing thing is that everyone can relate to your insecurities and understand the reasons how this situation can so easily happen. I also think, as a thirty something myself that you have to get to our age before you can accept yourself and finally say "if you don't like me kiss my ..." You have had an extremely eventful life but as you said yourself, everything you went through has made you the person you are today. From reading your book you seem like such a well rounded gorgeous young lady and I wish you and your gorgeous son all the best of luck for a really happy (and a bit less eventful) life, you look like you are such a natural maternal mother and maybe this is the love you have been looking for.
