I am going to start telling my adoption story. The summer of 2007 has been a pivotal year me. I finally reconnected with my birth-mother after many years of painful separation. She gave me up for adoption in 1968. I initially found her in 1995. Our reunion was positive, but unclear. This mother’s day, in 2007, I called to find out that her mother had passed away. I was not told or invited to the funeral, but decided that it was important to try to make a connection. I invited myself to her place and stayed the summer.
