For the past 3 weeks, I've spoken every night with my bmom on the phone. I will see her for the first time next week. I found out she had no intention of relinquishing me, but she was 16 and was pushed into it by the doctor. When she had me (it was in a big city hospital) they just left her with me in the hallway and didn't even clean me up. She held me and fed me until the doctor came with a gray haired old lady (probably a social worker) and pushed her into giving me up (this was 1962). When she left the hospital, she returned to a very small town. Her whole life was affected. She never had any more children. She's a great lady who wasn't even treated like a human being when she had me. No one considered her or her feelings. What can I say to her to help her not knowing me for 47 years? I feel so badly what was done to her.
