Adopted son and birth mother reunite after 20 years, realizing they both work at the same hospital

[@robbiesharp311]

I found my birth mother and she didn't want to meet me. True story. She hid the birth from her 8 kids and xhusband. Glad I have such wonderful parents who adopted me.

[@truthseeker5109]

I'm so glad to hear that you were adopted by wonderful and loving parents. It is too bad that your birth mother doesn't want to meet you. I hope that you won't ever think on that with any negative connotation to yourself - she is living out her own pain and trauma, which doesn't have anything to do with you, it's about her limitations and struggles. I'm sorry that you had to experience that loss and her rejection, but I hope you won't let it make you feel down. Someone who doesn't care enough to meet you, you are probably better off without, anyway. I'm so very grateful to loving individuals who offer love and genuine care to children, even if they aren't 'biological' it makes all the difference in the world. I wish you all the best.

@@truthseeker5109 Thank you. Yes I was in my late 20s and my sister called her. I was crushed for a day. She has since passed. I didn't even cry. Im married now and have many many perfect days.

[@truthseeker5109]

I'm so glad to hear that you have a family of your own and have happiness. Thank you for sharing your experience, I think the world becomes a better place when people show empathy and share their stories so that we all know we aren't alone when life gives us pain. I haven't experienced what you have, but had cousins who were adopted, so I saw some of this from the sidelines. I hope for you and your family every blessing!

So sorry, it may have been for the best. You ended up with loving parents and family.

Like Holly, I always knew I was adopted. My adoptive parents told me everything and even gave me my adoption papers with names of my birth parents and my one brother. When I was 14 I got a small motorscooter and got around in the city beyond my usual haunts. I started to be mistaken for someone in a particular area of the city. My brother was a year younger than me. I told my parents and they cautioned me that he might not know if he was adopted. I got someone to introduce me at a public swimming pool to him. After a few other times he took me to his house. His adoptive mother had passed by that time. When I walked in the house with him, his father almost had a heart attack. As my brother and I played board games, his father kept watching me. After I got home that night I got a phone call. All I heard was, "You're my brother!"

[@MsFoxy2011]

Oh my god!!!! Don’t leave us hanging. Then what happened afterwards? What an interesting story! I want to hear more..

[@bryanlb4987]

@@MsFoxy2011 We spent many good times together for years. He passed away a few years ago from diabetes. He had different interests than me. I enjoyed sports and he enjoyed geology. One time we were playing baseball and he was on first base. A ball went by him without him noticing. He was looking at something in his hand. I walked over and asked what he was doing. He showed me a small rock he'd picked up and told me what time period it came from. After that when we were together it was either going to the movies or swimming at a local pool. He was the best man at my wedding.

I could never. My son is my everything he's 2 months now so glad I waited to have a kid @28. Glad she gave him up tho n not throw him in the trash like some other crazy mothers do smh

[@peachygal4153]

I loved another story where a hospital nursed adopted a 14-year-old girl in foster care and her baby, Like this woman, she had no means of a way to support her baby but did not want to give him up, she did not have to. She legally became his sister.

[@moparqween8824]

I hope my son comes to find me one day. I know where to find him but that’s not my place.

[@simplyp5521]

As adoptees we don’t feel that way. I know it’s scary but only you know why you placed him. We want to be found and know our first mothers cared about us. 💕

Contact him. You will be the missing piece in his life he may be searching for. God bless you both x 🥰

If you watched his you would Know his MOTHER was happy for him to meet his birth mother because she had empathy for the young teen giving up her child because at 15 she had no means of a way to support him; the same girl who had picked her out of a list of people wanting to adopt to be his mother. I believe you must be projecting your own insecurities here.

[@MHiggins]

Has he met his biological father. Obviously she didn’t have the child by herself?

[@KenTheCurator]

women really suck, give up your kid then come back after someone else raised them, if a man did this they would call him a deadbeat.

[@truthseeker5109]

But every situation is different, sometimes it might be the wrong thing to do, and in other situations it might be the right thing to do. If it helps with healing the adopted person's life, then I'm all for it. I watched my cousins go through similar situations. To one it meant so much to them to find out what their story was, and to understand what happened with their birth parents - it helped them with their identity and showed them that it didn't have anything to do with the biological birth parents 'not wanting them' but more about how circumstances were very difficult, and I think my cousin gained a deeper appreciation for their adoptive parents through the experience. And another of my cousins had no desire to meet their biological parents, and that is perfectly fine, too. I'm just grateful that if an individual (or couple) knows they can't make a life for their child, that they have the option of adopting them out to someone who will love and care for them. It's not an easy situation, but hopefully it is better than some alternatives.

[@RealJudyi]

There's also fathers who never knew they had a son/daughter and or were never even given a chance to decide anything for the babys future

[@gingergail7849]

Such a selfless act, placing a child for adoption, that they may have a proper upbringing; and the ultimate gift to parents seeking to adopt.

[@sgtmian]

i think what would suck would be to keep him knowing you couldn’t give him everything he deserved. a deadbeat is someone who just walks away and doesn’t care. doesn’t matter if it’s the mom or the dad. she lovingly placed him with someone else because she wanted him to have everything. there’s nothing deadbeat about that.
