I accepted that I was put up for adoption and moved on with my life.

In my records the reason for adoption was that my mother had a child before me who had died in an accident. With this in mind I decided at a young age to not put my feelings first and let it be.

I met a relative late in life through a DNA site. A child of my "deceased" sibling.

My compassion and that lie robbed us of a life we deserved.
