Comments:Hello,

On January 15, 1998 I signed your guestbook. I had reunited with my son and wanted to encourage all mothers and adoptee's to search, find, and know the truth of your birth.

Since reuniting my life has changed so much. I have grown and learned so much thanks to my sisters who have walked the same path as myself.Together we are making a difference, letting others know we did not willing surrender our babies.

Those that should have stuck by us turned their backs on us. They know who they are and hopefully one day they can admit what they did was wrong.

I as a mother deserved to be with my baby, I should have saw his precious face at birth, been able to hold his tiny body, and given him the loved he deserved from his me his mother.

I will forever be who I am, as he is forever who he is, mother and son together from the start, torn apart at birth by someone else's need.

Gale Munden
Happily reunited

Comments:In 1960 I went to Florence Crittendon home in Peoria, Il. on I think Heading Ave. I was pregnant with you, I was so sure your daddy and I would get married. He left me and I was only 16. I loved you very much but my mom and family decided I should give you to a family who could give you the love of both a mom and dad. I never wanted to give you up. In those days people looked on an unwed mother as a terrible person. I didn't care what they thought but my family did and I didn't have the education and means to give you the things you needed. All I could give was love. You were born in April of 1960 I'm sure around the 23th. I named you Wayne. I was not allowed to hold you and it broke my heart to just be able to see you thru the glass. Our eyes did meet before You left with your adoptee parents. I've prayed you've had a wonderful life and think good thoughts of your bio. mother. I still pray for you and think of you often. Love, Mom

I found out over the phone that my first born child was killed in a jeep rollover in 1998. I think birth mothers should be notified if their child is killed or dies, it need to be made into a law. I have began my search, so I can have closure on his death and met his brother my 2nd son. I pray for them daily, and hope to find him soon and find out where my son is buried Thanks

Although the pain of losing a child is still with me, i would greatly encourage open adoption. It is a tremendous help for me, the parents, and eventually my son too. I'm glad i had this option and my child will always know who i am and thte unconditional love i hhave for him.

After his birth I learned he had inherited a genetic disorder (ectodermal dysplasia), causing secondary deformities, 6 digits and cleft lip & Palet ...at that time ini 1970-71 I thought it was the best thing as it was a date rape, but after becoming a Christian it woke me up to what i had done, I made the wrong decision and now regret it ...I want to find him and let him know that I always really loved him ..I know God has forgiven me and if he is searching and finds any of my Registration I hope he will forgive me too! One imp. thing I want him to know is that I never gave him up because of birthdefects!

Comments:My daughter does not know I am her birthmother my sister
took her right after I gave birth. Sarah Ashley was the
name I gave her, Ashley Lousie is what Susan named her.
I have Cerebal Palsy, but am very strong-willed. My mother
is very ashamed of me. Sarah Ashley will be 18 August 3.
She is going away to college. I tried telling her the truth
however, my mother got on the phone and called me a liar.
I am very hurt; I just want a relationship with my daughter
and for Ashley to know I love her. My sister always said
she would let me be a part of her life. All that changed as soon as John and I signed the adoption papers. I love
my Sarah Ashley very much. Does anyone have some advuice
for me. Ashley lives in Dothan Alabama, with my parents and
my sister Susan. She always goes back home after her devoicees. In someways Susan is more handicapped than I am.
Any assitance or words of wisdom are appreciated!!

Comments:Female born Feb 1961, ISO of Bfamily

The three worst swear words are Black Market Adoptee. We have NO way of knowing who we are, where we come from, or where we belong. We live with lies, false paperwork, and no way to find the truth. I'm a 40 yr old woman with just this problem. My DOB is Feb 17,1961, so it says on my false BC.

The clues to my life are as follow. I was adopted out of lawyers office on around Feb 23,1961. The lawyer was Mr. John Cenesky, still living, but he will not help me in anyway, Clue 1. Was told by family that one day I was just there, no one knew about my Aparents adopting another child,Clue 2. I have an older adopted brother by three years and all of the family know about him and where he came from,Clue 3.No paper work to be found on my adoption anywhere in my Aparents home, but everything is there for my brother, Clue 4.My aparents had just lost their only child in birth in Nov,1960, they were in their 40's when they got me,Clue 5. I have filed every paper one can with NY State and nothing there, but false BC, Clue 6.

Facts that I do know, was adopted in upstate NY, adoption was final on March 1962. I was told by family I was a small baby with blondie hair and blue eyes. The all american baby. Now at 40 I have lite brown hair and hazel eyes, stand 5/2 and have to wear glasses due to lazy eye.

My Amother has passed, but my Afather tells me that my Bmother was around 17 and was to be of Irish desent. Of course I have nothing to back this up.

But the final comment that told me that I'm not a legal adoptee. My Afather said one day that he had paid enough for me the first time.

I have no way of knowing what happen at the time of my birth. Maybe my bmother was told I had major health problems, maybe it was arranged though a family member of hers, she may have been told that I dead at birth. So many horror stories to be told. But if your out there I'm looking for you, not to hurt or blame you, just missing that piece of my heart.

So here I sit and nowhere to turn, all I have is question about my life.If you think you know who I am, please contact.

Comments:Wow! Thank you for another site that opens our eyes and
educates us on the "dark side of adoption". I was blessed
with adoption experiences as an adoptee and a birth mother
that were out of a fairy tale book, comparatively speaking,
after reading some of the poetry and stories on the
internet. Growing up I thought everyone in adoption had
experiences just like mine. When I started my web site a
few years ago I was stunned to find a whole other world of
Adoption, one I didn't want to see. Now I am working to
help others tell their stories and put their poetry on my
web site, to help others and not be alone in their pain - or
to find understanding and comfort and friendships. Bless you
for this site and all you've all gone through. I pray that
God will give you His Peace.

friends computer. Please help me! I am at my wits end. I
feel like I don't even know myself. I have medical problems
in the past, and not knowing your medical history can cause
problems. I worry if something was medical wrong with my
children, I wouldn't have any medical history to tell the
doctors. My address is 3517 South Meta, Oklahoma City,OK

want to know where I come from. I hope my birthmother has
looked for me, it would make me feel like she wants to meet
me after 34 years,as I was adopted at 31/2 months old.
Thankyou for any help you can give me. Hopefully

either but I seen him in the labor room. Words just can't
express the pain I feel because I don't know Where he is or
What he looks like and because I let people talk me into it.
And I'm so tired of people telling me I did the right thing.
Beause I don't feel with all of my pain that it was. I just

Comments:I gave my twins up for adoption 7 years ago. I had a boy and
a girl. I stumbled onto this web site while trying to find
counseling in my area. I am 25 years old and I am having a
really hard time with the decision I made more then 7 years
ago. If there is anyone out there who is having a hard time
with there decision please E-mail me. I want to know that I
am not alone and I want to hear your story.
When I gave up my children I did not know that I would be
where I am in my life today. If I was told by one person
that I could make it in life on my own or had a little
confidence in myself I know things would be different. The
attorney that did the adoption and the birth parents both
told me how brave I was and how it took raw courage to make
that decision. Only to find out 7 years later that they were
wrong and my decision was made on fear, lack of confidence
in myself and the lies that were put in my mind as a child
and growing up. I did not know the facts. I should have
known the facts. I was raised thinking I was nothing and a
nobody. I know now that I am a somebody, I am a child of God
and I can do anything I want to do in this life. It isn't
always easy but very possible. I was taken advantage of by
that attorney and those people that my children call mom and
dad. I had something they both wanted and they made me think
and feel like this was the right thing, they made me feel
like I was nothing. Yes it was the right thing, the right
thing for the couple who could not have children and it was
the right thing for their lawers bank account.

handling the adoption. So I know in my heart she gave me
up because she loved me so much. Adoption was a gift to me
I could not have had a better life. I will always love my

They have access to all the records so this must be
correct.By Tx law they can not give me any identifing
information. It is impossible to have closier with no proof
to hold in my hand. I can not accept his death. There are
some volenteers searching and maybe they can beat the
system for me. We all need to in our own states and
together as a nation fight these outdated laws. Give
adoptees and Bmom`s information when the child is 21 years
of age. At the very least give info. when someone dies.

Name: An adoptive Mother
Comments:I am truely sorry for the experience tht you went through.
My husband and I adopted a child that we love dearly and
with all our hearts. I read some of the other entries in
your book, and to be honest I did let alittle upset. I
know it has to be hard for a 'birth-mother' to give up her
child for adoption. But there are good people out there
who for one reason or another were unable(like myself)to
have a child of our own flesh and blood. I am sure that
not all adoptive children have that 'good life' and that is
sad, truely sad. Then there are parents like myself and my
husband who love OUR baby more than simple words can
explain. There is nothing that I wouldnt do for my child.
And yes we have a closed adoption, I wouldnt want it any
other way. My reasons are simple... the 'birth-mother' gave
up her child, and we took this beautiful child in our
hearts and home as our own. We DID NOT want her to change
her mind and decided that she will drive by, stalk, or
kidnap our child. When the time is right we will tell our
child the truth about how he came into our lives, and that
there is a very special woman out there who loved him
enough to give him a better live than she had or could
provide for him. Some will think that we have made the
wrong choice in doing this, but I truely believe that its
the best way for all concerned.
Try to look through your pain and see the other Mommy's
point of view. Thank you for your time, and if you dont
want this in your DreamBook thats ok beause at least I know
that you have read it, and maybe just maybe you can see my
side of things.

and pregnant. I had never been away from my family. I was
the youngest there--there, being Methodist Home Hospital,
New Orleans, Louisiana. Four days after my 16th birthday,
I gave birth to the most beautiful, pink, round, little
baby girl. When I had her christined, I promised her with
my life that we would be together again. That promise was
fulfilled July 1996. On her birthday, I heard her voice
for the first time. I fell in love with her all over
again. She has brought peace to me at last. All of the
guilt, all of the questions unanswered, all of the night
torments of not knowing where she was, if she lived, if she
was warm, dry and safe------all are now put to rest. We
talk frequently, and e-mail each other. She has 2 half
brothers who adore her and a "nother mother" who is
estatic. We are friends. That was my hearts desire, to be
her friend.
I would like to find other birthmothers who were at the

and I want everyone to know that I still have a black hole.

Comments:Great web site! My daughter, her birth father and I found
each other 6/7/97 after 31 years. We encouraged every one to
SEARCH! It's your right. I spent time in a home, it was
awful. Being reunited makes it all worth it.

Comments:this pape has a lot of emotions I think all birthmothers
feel the lonley feeling some where in their hearts.
I placed my daughter with her parents on Jan.13 1997 it is
an open adoption and the diffrance is inncrediable.
I cry yet If I want to know I can call.
I am against closed Adoption, I feel as if it has more
mental effect on the child and mother.

Comments:I am also a birthmother who just recently placed in
September of 1996. I was very touched by the story of the
birthmom and her birthson. I am not able to relate to you
on that aspect because of I have an open adoption with my
daughter and her parents and I know that she is happy,
healthy, and has everything that she needs. I know I was
blessed with this situation, but I do empathize with the
birthmoms out there who are not fortunate to experience an
open adoption, I know it must be heartwrenching not knowing
where your child is or how he/she is doing!!!

Comments:I gave my first born up in 1976. I knew there was a baby in there but I had no idea how that baby got there. Even after I got taken to the doctors for an abortion, needless to say I was 6 mon.. I was later that afternoon put on a plane to Houston Tesas, ship to an half aunt I met one other time. Still wasn't explained how it got there. I am very proud I found this cause after all these years I can finally see I wasn't the only one left with a major emty spot even though I have two teenagers now I am still expected not to speak of, only unmentionale people can use it against me for the rest of my life!

Comments:I was very taken with the poem by Mary J. Where she makes reference to the wall, I as a young child remember listening to the wall. It too put me to sleep. I believe I too spent some time in a home or orphanage, I was adopted at 3 1/2 years of age. And was also abused horribly my whole life. I am now 44 and still suffering greatly. Bless you for being so strong, and for trying to help others.
