She was then sent to work in a big house where she was assaulted and fell pregnant. She was sent to a mother and baby Home in Tuam, from where she was forcibly separated from her then one-year-old son John Paschal and Bridie was forcibly put into the Magdalene Laundry in Galway City as punishment for her sins. She remained incarcerated till she escaped 15 years later along with two other inmates, who fled to England. Meanwhile, John Paschal remained in the Children Home Tuam until he was six.
