Tammy's Adoption

The law must be consonant with life. It cannot and should not ignore broad historical currents of history. Mankind is possessed of no greater urge than to try to understand the age-old questions: "Who am I ?", and "Why am I?" Even now the sands and ashes of the continents are being sifted to find where we made our first steps as man. Religions of mankind often include ancestor worship in one way or another. For many the future is blind without sight of the past. Those emotions and anxieties that generate our thirst to know the past are not superficial and whimsical. They are real and they are "good cause" under the law of man and God."By the Hon. Wade Weatherford, S. Carolina Circuit Court Judge

I am a reunited adult adoptee.  I found my birthparents in 1990, along with two full blooded sisters and two nieces.  We have had a wonderful reunion and we are all good friends.  I wish each reunion is as successful as mine.  

I found a poem that has meant alot to me and expresses so well my feelings on being adopted.  It's called LEGACY OF AN ADOPTED CHILD

(click to read).  It is well worth taking the time to read.

Please support bills in your individual states that require open records for all ADULT adoptees.
