Whilst studying for her A-levels, Andrea started going out with
next door neighbour, Terry Duckworth,
behind her parents' backs. She was shocked to discover that she
was pregnant, but refused to allow Terry to have anything to do
with the child, even though he rather uncharacteristically wanted
to stand by her and help support his offspring. Her parents decided
that the best way forward was for Connie
to look after the baby while Andrea went to university. When Vera Duckworth decided to get involved
in plans for her grandchild's future, the Clayton family packed
up overnight and moved out of town. Eventually word reached Terry
that his son had been born.
Andrea turned up on the Duckworths doorstep one November night
in 2000 and explained that her son by Terry
- Paul was dying unless he could
have a kidney transplant. Although Terry once again eploited the
situation to his own ends, eventually Paul's grandmother Vera
stood in and saved Paul by becoming a living donor and giving
one of her kidneys to save his life.
