I need some help. I was adopted back in 1979 and I am looking for my birthmother. I recently found out infomation regarding her...I didn't get her name but I found out her age and where I was born and when I was born...I am needing to find my birth records and to find out any medical info regarding the health of my birth mother because it would help me to be able to know why and where a lot of my issues and illnesses have come from. I am really frustrated because this is something that I am doing on my own without any help. My parents that adopted me want nothing to do with any of this and actually they dont know Im going this far in trying to find her. I had an amended birth certificate which means that when I was born my parents that adopted me put my name on the certificate and left off other info regarding my birthparents...I need to find info out!! I know where I was born and when and I even know the doctor that delievered me..and have been in contact with him...but it is very frustrating because he is only giving me little bits of info. I just emailed him again and asked him if there was any way he could provide me with a name...this is so frustrating. It is so hard to go through life knowing that you have another family out in the world and knowing that you may never be able to find anything out. I told my therapist that I hope I never die before meeting my family. I cannot imagine going through my entire life NEVER meeting my family...this is so depressing for me. I wish I was never adopted.
