About the Author: Mandy Aitken
I was born and brought up in Godalming, Surrey in England. I have two sisters. I left school at 16 and started work as an auxiliary nurse. At 18 I trained at Guildford to become a Registered Nurse completing 26 years of nursing as a Clinical Nurse Manager in a Rehabilitation Hospital. I had always enjoyed writing poetry but following the death of my 13 year old son, I wrote his memoirs for cathartic reasons, resulting in My Son, Blib. I self published it in 2,000 and sold 1,000 copies, I republished it in 2001, due to popular demand locally and sold a further 600 copies. I currently live in Menorca, Spain with my mongrel dog Bandido, who had been dumped in a refuge.
In the weeks following the death of my son Tony aged just Thirteen, I started writing his memoirs as cathartic therapy in an effort to make some sense of the turmoil I was experiencing and to contain the anger I was feeling.
Tony was to experience many prejudices in his life. Bullied from a young age, racism and from the age of nine, he was to live as a diabetic that proved to be brittle and difficult to control.
Tony always rose to his challenges with a winning smile and a maturity that belied his age.
He experienced premonitions, including his own death. He was a strange mysterious child but he enriched the lives of all those who knew him.
I know Tony would wish for any person working in the medical or educational fields. To read his book, thereby preventing any other child suffering the injustices he was forced to endure.
I still take strength from my son every single day, and for all bereaved parents that feel such isolation, please read my book. You are not alone……………
