Amy's
Story
" All of my life I had
wondered many things about my birthmother….I had my heart set
on meeting her, and although I tried to tell myself not to get
my hopes up too high, I still felt that she would want to meet
me too. Finally, after what seemed like forever, the special
day came… ..I realized that Shelley had never let go of me.
That she had been holding me all along in her heart."
(Adoptee: Amy)
"Amy’s love is genuine…I thanked
her parents for raising such a lovely girl and feel truly
blessed for meeting her." (Birthmother:
Shelley) |
Marywood's Services:
Marywood
believes that adoption is a lifelong experience. Birthparents,
adoptees, and adoptive parents have questions long after an adoption
has been finalized. Marywood has post adoption staff that can assist
you in obtaining information about post adoption issues.
