Beacon house or the adoption? I was a scared 18 year old. The birthfather wanted me to get an abortion and i didn't. He didn't want anything to do with me or our baby. I didn't have a whole lot of options. My father told me that if i ever got pregnant, I could never go back home. So it's not like i had a whole lot of support on the home front. I saw an adoption ad in the paper and i called. I went down to Lousiana in November 1991. I am
orginally from Pennyslvania(about 25 miles from Gettysburg) I was 5 months pregnant and i met with Anne Hughes. She was the attorney for the adoptive couple. I don't remember which sw i dealt with. They supplied the appt. and such. I still have the homestudy from the adoptive parents of my daughter.
Mine was a closed adoption. I thought that was best- To give my daughter a clean break-so her ap would be her parents and give her all the things that i couldn't. She is my only child. I got my tubes tied when i was 27. It was the most painful experience of my life-walking away from my only child, but i'd like to think that it was the most loving. I hope that the ap take care of the gift that I gave them . I quess to answer your question yes beacon house was the answer for me.
