It is with great sadness that I let you know that a dear friend, and former member of this site, Jordanmode, committed suicide today.
Jordan's daughter, Malia, will turn 3 on the 12th never knowing the love of her birthmom.
Jordan's daughter was adopted by parents who promised her a visit and on going contact. They used (actually wrote the book on) "Fast Track Adoption" but treated her as expendible. I have listened to her pain, her agony at broken promises and a relationship she thought she could rely on. I have heard her cry for just ONE meeting with her daughter's mother, I have heard her ache for a video just to hear and see what her daughter looked like.
Today the pain became too much. Ohh Jordan I will miss you so much. I hope you find your rainbow.

I'm so sorry Jensboys. I don't remember her but I wish I did. I'm glad that you were there for her to listen to and I'm so sorry that you lost a friend. I'm sorry for her daughter too. I can't imagine the pain of ever finding out that your bmom committed suicide because she was so desperate to see you. That poor baby.

20/20 plans on doing a story on Dr Susan Burns and her book. Please email them and give birthparents a voice. Don't let Cindy's death go unoticed and don't let Dr. Burns get away with it. The media has too long ignored the after affects of adoption on birthparents and adoptees. If no one will speak for us we will have to speak for ourselves.
