year..

  I come from a very self centered family and sence there

support else where. I am willing to try any thing right.

I am a birthmother who is fresh into the adoption scene by 7 months but have quite a network of friends who have also placed their children for adoption. They tell me the pain will never go away. But it does get better. Eventually it goes from feeling like a really bad ulcer(I know this one from experience) to an old sprain that just hurts alot once in awhile. I have asked myself the very same question so many times it's not funny. I'm starting to ask it less and less often though which I hear is a good thing. I hope my words of encouragement have helped somewhat. Maybe we should think of corresponding more often on the forum.(No that isn't a pickup).
