I am glad that you have been able to find peace with your feelings about your own birthmother, while at the same time being able to make a choice that you could be proud of. We have another adoptee/birthmother on our board (who I am sure will respond to this) who has recently experienced the same thing as she has reunited recently with her birthmother. What an amazing testimony for all!
I pray that your recovery is filled with a continuing sense of understanding and peace and that you will begin your new life in hope and love. Just remember that it's okay to experience ALL ranges of emotion - I just pray that when the downs come you will be open to support and that you will continue to seek understanding from others who know what you are going through. The first year is usually what is known as the "Honeymoon period" ... so I would encourage you to continue to work on your recovery even if you feel you don't need it. We would love to have you here often!
God Bless!
Courtney
