โœฆ Synopsis


Sandra Gregory seemed to have the perfect life in Bangkok โ€“ until illness, unemployment and political unrest turned it into a nightmare. Desperate to get home by any means possible, she agreed to smuggle an addictโ€™s personal supply of heroin. She didnโ€™t even make it onto the plane.In this remarkably candid memoir, Sandra Gregory tells the full story of the events leading up to her arrest, the horrific conditions in Lard Yao prison, her trial in a language she didnโ€™t understand and how it feels to be sentenced to death.Sandra finally resumed her journey home some four and a half years later, when she was transferred to the British prison system and had to adapt to a new, yet equally harsh, regime. Following relentless campaigning by her parents โ€“ who refused to forget they had a daughter โ€“ she was pardoned by the King of Thailand and released in 2000.Forget You Had a Daughter is the extraordinary story of an ordinary British woman who made a mistake that changed the rest of her life.
