I remember the adoption therapist I had some sessions with..
She was used to dealing with a woman that was considering relinquishing..

She said to me.. “Women may sign the papers but they never give up the child”… or something like that.. I can not remember.

It felt good when she said that.. I liked it.. it was true..
I remember on alt.adoption.. me saying I abandoned my son.. standing in that..
A woman an amom wrote to me.. that she did not think I had done that..

I think it was me facing up to the fact that I had sent my son to the great unknown.. standing in it and seeing how it fit..
Sending him away from my protection..
My mothers care..

But.. I was in no shape to care for him..
