Irene got pregnant at age 15, and her marriage got off to a rocky start when she and her husband Domingo married at 16. The marriage lasted, and over the past 45 years, they have birthed, fostered, or adopted 32 children, many with special needs. With the help of bestselling author Lissa Halls Johnson, Irene tells the stories of these remarkable children.
Each week host Nancy Wiegman talks to local, regional and national writers about their latest projects. Nancy's Bookshelf airs Fridays at 10 a.m.
