As far as expectations go I suppose I'm in this two fold. I am a birth mother as well my eldest brother was adopted 2 years before I was born. As I mentioned above I come from a very dysfunctional 'family', but my mother had always told us about Jack from the time we were old enough to listen. During some very trying times when I was younger (around 13/14), I used to dream about my older brother coming to 'save' me. I did find him quite by chance in December of 1999, he is an amazing guy. I don't know what my 'expectations' really were, but he is a big huggable, lovable guy that's for sure.
As a bmom I don't know what I imagine, although I don't 'fear' anything. I have my information out there and I know that she's alive (contact with CAS due to medical issues) and I am here. I will be here when/if she ever wants contact, the ultimate choice will be up to her.
