No, Tabitha, I found I don't have any bio sisters or brothers, which is something I was REALLY hoping for. I was my bio mom's only child. The closest I have is three cousins, ages 23, 11, and 9. So for the little kids I could might as well be their mother. (I'm 36).
One of my friends pointed out that, literally, I'm the "red-headed step-child!" :D (That's an oooold expression meaning bastard, and I have auburn hair!) ;)
I think it's time for more Ativan. You know, if I had started searching sooner, I would have met my mother -- she didn't die until October of 2001. But I waited, 'til I thought the time was right, and now she's gone. Everyday of my life she has been with me, only to find that she was very sick and now dead. I never got to touch her face.
Then there's the whole issue of weaning my father's name out of my bio aunt -- she can't remember and needs to call someone to find out. Waiting. Impatience. Agony.
Thanks for good wishes.
