I took the liberty of starting a new thread because yours got me thinking about my relatives. Life is a journey and it is a gift given us by our creator. Let's all make the best of it.  |
My wife was adopted as a baby from Seoul Korea... not much of a surprise (that she is adopted) since her parents were Caucasians living in southern Oregon, they raised two natural born children then adopted three Korean babies over several years.
My wife claims no interest in finding her birth mother which is good because I don't think there is much hope to find her mother back in Korea.
She also was deeply bonded and attached to her parents (now RIP) and never thought of them as anything but her natural parents.
On an amusing note her, her sister, and brother were the only Asians in town and each adoption made the local newspaper.
