Let's Talk Adoption

Monday February 14, 2005
On at 8 am PST and again at 8 pm PST at www.LetsTalkAdoption.com, the radio show, "Let's Talk Adoption" the topic will be "Follow Your Heart – Search and Reunion in a Closed Adoption".

Host, Mardie Caldwell and author and adoptee, Lori Paris will discuss Lori’s experience in a closed adoption and her search and reunion with her birth parents. Before you begin the search for your own birth parents or assist your child in his, prepare yourself by listening to this thought-provoking interview that may very well change your life.

A closed adoption can carry with it unique and difficult challenges for an adoptee. For many, whether – and how -- to pursue a birth parent search can be one of the most difficult challenges. Interested in search and reunion? Consider this:
  • What is involved?
  • How and where will you begin?
  • Are you ready to handle the consequences of a completed search and reunion?

  • If you have an adoption reunion story that you would like to share here at About Adoption, please email me at adoption@about.com. I would be glad to hear both the good and the bad. All stories are of a benefit to those searching.
