Abstract

I am a child of a person with haemophilia, I am a nurse, I am a researcher. I am a lucky one. The Contaminated (or Tainted) Blood Scandal was a worldwide event that infected many people, including People with Haemophilia (PwH), with blood-borne diseases. With the recent inquiry, more is revealed about decision making and events, allowing families like mine to see the truth for the first time. This essay explores the published literature, both by academics and by people from the haemophilia community, alongside exo-autoethnographic and autoethnographic elements. It will include my journey as I traveled the path from considering the trauma inherited alone, to discovering my own place in the story.
