Synopsis "Stillborn: An Adoptee's Sixty Year Search for Life"
Stillborn is a memoir describing the sixty-year search for the unmarried teenager who abandoned me at birth. After mistreatment in my first foster home, I am adopted by my second. Curiosity about my adoption grew as did I.After marriage and fatherhood, the first search for my parents is started. It is unsuccessful, and my interest fades away. Twenty years later, I search again using the growing Internet. Again, it is unsuccessful.When I develop a serious health issue, a genealogist is hired. In spite of false names used on my birth certificate, both birth-parents are found after a prolonged search. Only my mother knew I existed, having told her ex-lover I had been stillborn. The next four years bond our divergent families closer together. Both parents died with me at their side, and mine were the last words they heard. I learned to accept the emotions I had repressed all these years.
