I am 27, and it suddenly became very important to me that I know my heritage, medical history, and the reason I was placed for adoption. I have never felt abandoned or unloved because of my birth mother's IPI decision to allow someone else to raise me. To me, such a decision is the most unselfish act a woman can ever make. Abby, I recently located and met my birth mother. My adoptive mother, who is my mom, also recently met my birth mom. It was, by far, the most amazing event in my life to date. It has been several months since my first call to her, and I have visited with her and her entire family four ft-- -; .i a v Whether you travel across country or across town, ft .Si.: we have a plan for you. times now. We frequently telephone one another. There were many reasons I wanted to meet her, but first and foremost, I wanted to thank her. Mom expressed the same sentiment when we met my birth mother. Please tell "Scared" that there is no reason. to be afraid. She will experience many emotions on this jonrney and will need to allow time for everyone to adjust, but I guarantee that her daughter has been looking for her, and she is probably just as nervous as the mother.
