About Me: I was inspired to write a true account of my life as an
adopted individual in the hopes of raising awareness of civil rights of
adoptees and instigating reform in the current laws pertaining to
adoptee records.
I was born in the state of New Jersey, and surrendered by my birth
mother to a Catholic adoption agency. At ten days old, I was
placed into the home of my adoptive family. My parents told me at
a very early age about my adoption status, however, no further
knowledge about my origins was divulged. I was simply told there
were other parents, and yet, at the same time, was expected to
pretend they didn't matter anymore—they didn't exist.
After years of silenced questions, I searched in order to uncover
my origins against walls of opposition from my family and society. The
Sound of Hope is my story. |
