Just learned my story “Infant Of” - about talking with my #adoptive mother about wanting to search for my #birthmother was shortlisted for The Letter Review Prize for NonFiction. It is an excerpt from my forthcoming #memoir - Thank you Letter Review. letterreview.com/the-letter-r... 🥚

Too many mothers relinquished with the promise of a better life for their child only to find out years later they were lied to by those people making that promise and their child may not have had a good life after all.

Not me giggling to myself thinking about the time I told my #birthmother that I’d only been looking at the temple of Satan’s website…

#mothersday can be quite confusing painful complicated for #adoptees.
It is for me.
I 💜 my #birthmother Joy who was forced to #relinquish me, her child.
I 💜 my #adoptivemom who did the best she knew how to raise someone else's child.
#adoption IS #adoptiontrauma

Photo of my mom Jane, who loved me and raised me to believe I could do anything I wanted. It is a three-quarter aspect formal portrait, taken before her wedding in 1948. She has black hair and piercing blue eyes, with a dark pink with a relaxed, closed-mouth smile. A string of pearls and a pale sweater can be seen. Originally a black and white photo, colorized by the photographer.
A candid photo of Molly, the mother who gave me life and my voice, and into the arms of loving parents. She is facing the camera with a broad smile. She has brown curly hair and is wearing clear-cat-eyes frames, circa 1963. She is wearing a dark-colored V-neck top.
Happy Mother’s Day to all you nurturers of others. Nurture yourself today!
These are my two mothers, the one who gave birth to me (right) and the one who raised me (left). They both loved me.

“I’m a #birthmother, but I also work in adoption, and I tell every single birth parent that #MothersDay sucks…People aren’t going to know what to say to you… And you might be struggling with, are you actually a mother if you’re not parenting your child?”

Besides being an interesting read about Americans who are moving to Canada, the big WINNIPEG sign in the article caught my eye because my #birthmother was a #Jew from Winnipeg. Her grandfather immigrated there from Odessa. Jewish communities are everywhere because we're always looking for safety. 🥚

What Remains.
Standing at the edge, treading lightly, casting what's left of myself. Who I was is gone. This is what remains. Bought and sold, before and after. Thoughts move from light into shadow. One event, one moment, became 2 lifetimes changed.

📖 I wrote a memoir about seeing the world through a child's eyes, where adults fail us, choices are stolen, and voices are silenced. It’s about a brave woman who fought for what mattered most — family. *Practically Still a Virgin
