Carol Foley

Carol (Coral) Anne Blurton (Foley) was born in Carnarvon, Western Australia. At an early age, she became ill and was placed under the care of the State. She is a proud Yamatji Noongar woman living on Noongar Boodja in Perth. She has two adult children and an extensive family network. Her life’s journey has involved growing up in a non-Aboriginal family and later reconnecting with her Aboriginal family through Welfare and various life experiences. Writing her story has been an important part of her healing process.
