I am about to turn 61 in about 3 months. It just seems like I turned 60.


I wish I could say that all the issues that I have as an adoptee have gone away. Not true. I still had flash backs but I am able to manage the triggers when they come.


I now have come to know what my triggers are. I think the one Issue I struggle with is feeling

like I have been forgotten.


I struggle with Stress and it is birth in Trauma from being separated from my birth mother. Yes even at 60.

I struggle with health issues as it is only now I can speak out about being adopted.


I sometimes struggle when I speak out about my adoption that I get a cold treatment from people who think I should be Quiet.


I speak out on Adoption not because I am bitter or hurt. I speak out because I want you to know about me. I want to raise awareness of the Issues that Adult adoptees expedience.
