    Sinéad O'Connor aka Shuhada' Davitt

    the moment I seen her name on that forum, I knew She suffered so much and had to bury her child. She was also attacked by the media for speaking out against the abuses she faced by the Catholic church. I hope she met her beloved son and can finally find peace and happiness in the afterlife.
