I was born on Wednesday August 11th, 1982 (8/11/82, 8/11/1982, 08/11/82, 08/11/1982) at St. Margaret's Hospital in Dorchester, MA. My mother "Kim" was from the North Shore I believe, and she stayed at St. Mary's Home for Unwed Mothers beginning in May of 82. I have papers that indicate the Catholic Charity sisters called me "Stephanie Elizabeth" when I was in their care shortly before being adopted through Wide Horizon's for Children. A woman named Vicky was in charge of my case and I was adopted by Dan and Andrea DiGiandomenico. Any information at all aside from this woman's first name, and a few "non-identifying" generalizations that were contained in a letter that left me full of questions would literally save my life.

Thank you for your response. I contacted them this week and was told that prior to the newest legislation, records for children born and adopted from 1974 - 1983 remain sealed for whatever reason, and can only be opened by a judge. These laws to protect people's rights are cumbersome. I guess everybody forgot we would grow up someday and wonder about our identities..
