It was a nice attempt to communicate and tell the way you felt about what you were forced to do. It was also that you were warning him of any potential health risk that he might encounter. I'm sure you discussed that with him when you finally got to know him. Adoption is a good thing and sure beats abortion.

This was incredible, I'm happy you were able to find him and that he had a good life with a loving parent, you did what you had to do, I'm sure he loves both his moms in different special ways.

It was such a hard decision you had to make but it seems to have been the right one for both of you. I'm glad you were able to find him and have a relationship with him later in life. Thank you for sharing.

We don't often have the opportunity to have that second chance. I am glad that you did and that it worked out. My late husband was in his thirties when he discovered he was adopted, His adopted parents had passed, When we finally found his birth mother she was hostile and didn't want anything to do with him. It was so sad because he felt rejected twice. Thank yu for sharing,
Smiles and hugs, Carol

A beautiful letter, very caring and unselfish. A pity he didn't get it - but how wonderful that he now has a relationship with you. He was blessed to have loving, caring adoptive parents. Probably the best decision you could have made. Best wishes for your entry in the contest.

This is a brave and revealing post Patricia and I did not know you had a son as well as your 3 daughters. Your letter is so heartbreaking and I am glad that you have a good relationship with your son now and that you speak regularly. I enjoyed reading about your life Patricia, a fine post, love Dolly x x x

Patricia, this must have been a letter that you put much thought and heart into writing. Although I cannot exactly know how you feel, or how you felt at the time, I do know that you made the right decision. This is a very powerful and endearing testimony of love, and wisdom of a strong woman. Well done, and done well.

I'm so glad that you managed to talk with him, there are so many young girls that conceived in unfortunate circumstances, but the adoptive are usually wonderful people, and the bear no grudge against their natural mother, but understand, beautifully written Pat, blessings Roy
