My adoption story: I was adopted twice! the first family was found unsuitable and so my first mother had to come back a year after she had relinquished me and do another round of paperwork. I was conceive in Georgia while my first mother was on vacation. She found out she was pregnant a few months later in Los Angeles. She was 16 at the time. She said in her interview that she had always wished she was adopted and felt cheated. But the famility was going to keep me until a few weeks before my birth when first mothers parents had a falling out. The rest is history ... I was adopted by two amazing people. Turns out that nobody in my birth family ever graduated from high school and 2 of my unlces went to prison for heroin. They grew up completely unserpervised and got into a lot of trouble. I consider myself to be the luckiest person on Earth
My adoptive Mom also helped me with my search and I am truly grateful and happy that she was able to be a part of it.
