I turned 21 march 27, 2006 and i wasn't sure if at that time i wanted to search for my bmom or not. Not b/c i didn't want 2 know her, but that i might hurt by adad somehow. I'm very much a daddy's girl, but my amom who was my best friend died dec 13, 2001 and i wasn't sure if i could look at some1 and try to call them mom and not b able too. wouldn't that hurt my bmom if i couldn't call her mom? Well i decided that i would try to look just about a month ago b/c of my son. he's 3 and fine now, but he was born with Gastroschisis (the intestines are on the outside of the body). I'm afraid to have any more kids now without knowing anything. I was born somewhere near Greenville,TN and the Agency was Holston United Methodist Adoption Agency i think. My aparents used a Mrs. or Ms. Eldridge to complete the adoption. i was in fostorcare until i was 5 weeks old and then the adoption was finalized & i was brought back to Ft.Oglethorpe, GA. I called the main adoption # in Nashville,TN and i don't have $300 to give to search or get my records opened. i don't know what to do. I'm just about to give up. Please if u have any advice...i'd appreciate it. Thank You...and bmom...if ur out there...i've dreamed of u all my life and wish u a verry Merry Christmas!

Leah, I can't be much help in the search portion of your thread, however I am a First Mom in the beginning stages of reunion with my birth son. I just wanted you to know that I would never expect him to call me mom. It is his decision on what he calls me and for now he calls me "Michelle" and I am fine with that. I wish you the best in your search and if you don't want to call your birth mom "mom" then don't feel like you have to.
(((hugs)))
