Why I thought my baby had devil’s eyes

Catherine Cho had a difficult birth with her son Kato, but she was recovering and excited to introduce the new baby to her family back home in the US. She and her husband James were stressed, travelling with a two-month-old child, and she was exhausted. Her family and friends were full of warnings about the dangers of parenting, but none could have predicted the terrifying things she started to experience. She believed she was trapped in the circles of hell and saw horrible things which weren’t there. Catherine was experiencing post-partum psychosis. She’s written a book about her journey back to reality and learning to love her son again, which is called Inferno: A Memoir. Presenter: Jo Fidgen Producer: Becky Vincent & Alice Gioia
