Addicted to drugs from birth because of her motherâs substance abuse during pregnancy, new-born Megan is taken into Rosieâs loving care. Rosie is supposed to help Megan find her new permanent home, but it turns out that Megan has already found her âforever mummyâ in Rosie.
Rosie grows incredibly attached to Megan and applies to adopt her, but the system refuses her in favour of a young couple and Rosie is devastated. Against all her instincts, Rosie does her job and prepares Megan for her new âforever familyâ, but everything about Megan leaving feels wrong.
When Rosie learns a few months later that Meganâs adoption has broken down, she is saddened but also filled with hope â will this little girl be allowed to return to her true âforever homeâ?
Rosie Lewis is a full-time foster carer. She has been working in this field for over a decade. Before that, she worked in the special units team in the police force.
