Geraldine Renton
I am Geraldine , writer, fixer of broken toys, knees and in time, hearts. I am wife to the lucky D, mother to three little boys , Ethan, J and Dee and new mother to fur baby Lola.
I have been writing all my life about everything and anything got to do with my world. I live on the west coast of Ireland, the lands of saints and scholars.
In 2008 my world changed forever forcing me into a dark murky world, no parent would ever want to go but no choice was given.
I write about life as a parent to a child living every day for his next one. Ethan my eldest boy, has Hunter Syndrome .
I try to find humour in the darkest hours and often I succeed. I write openly and honestly about raising all my boys and what it is like to have a child with a terminal condition .
