This story is my personal adoption journey. After years of knowing I was adopted at six weeks of age, receiving my Non-Identification Adoption Papers spiraled my life into a desperate need to find my birth family. It has been an absolute roller coaster of emotions. Hundreds of thousands have walked down the same path I did. Some at the beginning of their journey. Some at the end of their journey. Why do I feel alone? Does anyone really understand? My birth father was a legend. Do I have a right to feel proud, love and honor his legacy? I wrote my journey back in 2006 when I decided to search for my birth family. I had a dream that it was time to publish my journey, so here it is!
