“Denise was a popular music teacher and an amateur opera singer. She used to hold well-attended singing lessons during break times for her pupils.
“So when pupils stopped turning up to her classes, it wasn’t because they didn’t want to be taught. It was because her handwriting had got so bad, they couldn’t read her notices.
“When Denise began to fall frequently, it was confirmed. The Huntingdon’s Disease that had affected her father has been passed on.”

“Amy was arrested for the first time at 11. Criminal damage. After that it was drunken affray and an antisocial behaviour order. Then drunk and disorderly. Then it was common assault, stealing cars. Drugs.
“The police became so familiar with Amy that they’d routinely stop her on the street. They just expected her to be trouble. They were usually right.
“Then on New Year’s Eve, not long after her 16th birthday, Amy was sent to prison.
“I spent that weekend in the police station, and I didn’t know what was going to happen. But I knew I’d run out of chances.”
