Alan & Irene first met in Rennie Road children's home when he was seven & she was nine. Both had lost their mothers when they were very young. When the car Irene was in drew up outside the Home, seven year-old Alan was staring out of the window. & when he saw the little girl step out of the car, he knew, in that instant, that she was someone special. Alan dashed outside to meet her, & promised to show her where everything was. Over the next year the children were inseparable. But close friendships weren't encouraged & when it was discovered how close they were Alan was sent away without any explanation & no goodbye. Despite being forcibly parted their bond was never broken & each started an incredible 45 year journey to find the other again. This is a love story that stretches across what is now 50 years & regardless of a series of amazing coincidences & almost insurmountable obstacles, they found each other at last & married in 2007. NOT WITHOUT YOU contains painful memories of lonely childhoods, cruelty & desperate attempts to escape the system, but it's an astonishing story that demonstrates the ultimate truth: that love can surmount all odds.
