I too believe that I have a very interesting Tale about being Adopted;the trials;insecurities;effects on self image....
How some adoptions can turn into Trauma;and how time can help you learn to heal.
I also know what it is like to have a child thath you MUST give up for adoption....
I live daily searching for lost family members in an attempt to
heal my wounds.
I know the stinging slap of searching;only to find your parent dead.....
and I know how it feels to search and find you have siblings...
I know what it is like to live by the decisions others make for you...
I know the anxiousiness of meeting a sibling for the first time....
I understand that all reunions are not positive.....
I am enbarking on yet another journey next Month to the weat Coast to reunite with recent found sibling;and wonder at it all.

Thank-You for your time.
The Media is a good place to tell you story, as long as you are no longer in full trauma. When I found my son last year I was contacted by the life network to do my story on what we do for love, At first I thought is a great thing because I so badly wanted to get my story out there, over time and a ton of research I decided against it, for the Media can be detrimental to some, Broadcasting your story would be good if it was your full story, but know that the Media will only take the pieces of your story that would sell, in my story I knew that they would not be telling the full truth and that would have left me feeling violated and more traumatized than I was at the moment. Its a good thing to think about but way your options carefully

Thank--you for your input;
and I see your point very clearly.....
I wonder sometimes if these folks are for real(MEDIA)
why would they have a section here if they were not serious about this....
well; you know how disappointments go....sometimes 1 after another..
thanks again for your input it will give me something to ponder

I really dont think that the Media is intending to harm anyone by only telling a part of the story, the horror is they really need to go with "what sells" on TV, a story such as mine is not filled with poetry and butterflies the whole way through, they would dissect that portraying the butterflies and not the "real" stuff, again the media could be a wonderful way to tell your story, just make sure you are well aware of what you want to say and how you want your life portrayed.
