Quantum - I ordered The Girls Who Went Away. I read it furiously and gave it to my mom to read. She and my dad read it. I still need to get it back - she's bad at that kind of stuff. Then I asked her to read Primal Wound, so she could let me know if I should read it or if it would be too hard for me. I think I was being a little witchy because I have heard that is a hard one for birthmothers because of the pain of the child. I'm sure some deep seated part of me wanted her to read about the pain she caused him by her passive-aggressive "support" and other goofy behavior. Anyhow - she ordered 4 copies - one for her, one for me, one for the amom (which she has never given to her - remember this is an infamily adoption and the aparents did not play by the imaginary rules my parents made up in their heads about acting like they were Grandparents when they wanted to go to their town and act like Grandparents, but being spared the humiliation their trashy daughter had caused them if I actually raised my child.) - EWWWW - big diatribe there - can you see the deep rooted hostility???????? And the final copy is for the Adoptive Grandma - Who is my dad's aunt - another copy my mom has not mailed. HMMMMMMM.
I still have not seen a copy because my mom gave 2 copies to her friend - Her friend is an amom and her son is about 34. They both wanted to read it. I have not heard their commentary, but I would be interested, and I'd be interested in reading the book if the library of my mother could ever produce it.
