Hello. In or around November 1975 my bio mother supposedly walked into Westlake Hospital in Melrose Park, IL and abandoned me in the bathroom. I should actually say left me to be found because other than the nurses station what better place to leave me. Anyways, my adoptive parents are zero help... my adoptive mom will still look me in my eyes and swear 'I don't know anything'. I got lucky this year that at 42 years old my adoptive aunts and uncles decided enough is enough and told me the story. They informed me I was abandoned in such a way as described above and that I was somewhere between newborn and 1 month old and my body was full of drugs. One aunt said LSD, the others weren't sure what drugs.
Here's the thing... I don't think my bio mom/family is on any registries as I've searched for hours upon hours and found no similar story or timeline. I was told this woman possibly had a toddler on her hip that she took with after leaving me behind... supposedly a boy but who knows. I can understand my bio mom being afraid to meet me, totally get the fears. BUT, I have no hate, anger, ill will towards her! I am now 42 years old and went through the negative stages in my mentality. All I want is to know her, know any of them. I don't need a replacement family and I have no time in my life to waste it bashing the woman who birthed me, I'm just grateful to be alive and so glad she didn't choose worse options. I have to mention this in case she too is scouring search sites but is too scared to make contact because I really want any form of blood relation in my life. Cheers to everyone looking, hope every single one of you gets that reunion!
