My son made this video and I meet him thirty years later. I hope and wish that any woman who went through this has the opportunity to know thier child. My only recommendation would be to take it slowly, really get to know each other before incorporating other members into this new founded relationship. Someday I hope to be with him again, but till then my love will always be with him!
I was in a maternity home from Aug 82-Jan 83. It was terrible.The guilt.lies, and coersion that these vultures use to get these babies away from the mothers is downright criminal. Even in the early 80s, single motherhood was not as accepted as it is now.I managed to keep my baby.However, those months in the maternity home scarred me.Everyone should read Ann Fesslers book, THE GIRLS WHO WENT AWAY.
@maggiebridget09 Thank you, true shame and guilt played a major role in my life until I meet my son, who by the way video this film. All I can say to everyone out there searching for their son or daughter that they gave up for adoption, if you ever get to met them take it slowly you have many years to catch up and do it without the involement of others at first. Then after sometime then incorporate others.

Thanks for your choice! =]

@danicaxxvi I have since met my son! Found him on myspace on his 18th birthday. He has since visited many times and met his baby brothers.
