I think that's absolutely fantastic!
My mom gave two of hers up for adoption in the late '60's. Since it wasn't appropriate back then to be an unwed mother. Her daughter (my 1/2 sister) found us and for awhile was in contact but she doesn't want to tell her adoptive mother that she found us, so she's broken contact. (Her husband felt she was being deceptive and I think he had a good part to do with it)
The other one was a boy, my only full blood brother. And we can't find him. Adoption records are sealed and it's possible he may not know he's adopted. I'm going to keep looking but I think the chances are pretty slim for finding him.
Stories like this always make me think of him and hope we do find him, and gives me some hope still. |
