Laura,
I'm sorry for your pain. Even though I can't feel the pain of being an adoptee, I am a birthmother who to had no choice in keeping my daughter. That was 33 years ago. I recently began my search for her. I started with the agency which handled the adoption and they were able to locate her within a few weeks. She is not ready to have contact at this time, but sent me a copy of her wedding portrait. I hope that some time in the future she will want some contact. The waiting is difficult, but at least I was able to find out that she was placed with a good family and has had a happy life. I do so want to meet her and see her. I don't know what the age restrictions or laws are in the state which handled your adoption, but you should check it out. And if you know the agency, then maybe you can leave your current information for contact in case she comes looking.
Lots of luck,
Barbara
