A Reunion

How many people dream of being reunited with their babies that they relinquished for adoption and adoptees with their birth families? I would think that's a pretty long list.

I know I thought about the little girl that I gave birth to all the time. You might say that my life was consumed with her. Would it have been easier for me had I the chance to hold her in my arms or even gaze upon her tiny face? That wasn't the case for me because they took her from me immediately after I had been given gas.

How many people live in fear of being rejected if they reached out? I would say all of us. I know I was scared but also knew that I had to attempt it. It wasn't wonderful at first ~ the adoptive parents didn't want me to know my/their daughter. It was very painful but it also helped me to move forward in my life. I had a piece of the picture that I didn't have before. I now have a relationship with her and it is a loving one. We talk to each other every week and we fly out to each other's homes for visits.

Today on my talk radio show I had a birth mom and her birth daughter and they shared their lovely story of being reunited 50 years later. Together they wrote a book called, 'Fifty Years in 13 Days' which ia available on Amazon. Great read.....

Talk Radio on Adoption

I host a talk radio show on adoption @ http://toginet.com/shows/adoptionjourneytomotherhood
Every Monday morning from 9-10 am EST I have wonderful guests on that talk about everything pertaining to adoption and beyond.

Today I had Michael Hall from 'Adoption Star' adoption agency on talking about Infant Adoption Awarness Training and gay parenting.

Also, the adoption triad (birth mom, adoptee and adoptive parent)spoke about how they felt in regards to adoption and what their fears and hopes were.
