When I was a baby I was given up for adoption. I grew up knowing that, and I never tried to find out anything about my birth family for fear of hurting my adoptive family. I am now 64 years old and my adoptive mother has passed on. I recently placed an ad in Good Times magazine, and I have been successful in finding some of my birth family. I have learned that I have two sisters and a brother living in B.C. and several cousins, etc., living in Saskatchewan. I have been in contact with an aunt and a cousin who are willing to help me in this quest. I am in the process of writing to my sisters and brother with information as to who I am and my dream is that they will accept me as part of their family. I want so much to be able to meet and talk with them. I have gone from being the baby of a family of six to being the oldest child of a family of four. My birth parents have both passed on, but I would love to unite with my siblings and get to know my niece and nephew. God has blessed me in helping me get this far, and I am praying that He will help me follow through. This is an exciting and a scary prospect for me.
