Best News of the Day

Good news of the day...a girlfriend of mine from small-town Alberta finally took the plunge and had her DNA done through Ancestry as she had always heard through the family rumor mill that there was an unwanted pregnancy in the family from way back when. I am so proud of her, she's been listening to me and learning and understanding. She knew she had to reach out and find this unwanted cousin of hers because she understood what it meant to me.

She has done so many things in her life that has always made me respect her a little bit more everyday. Just because she shows that she cares means the world to a lot of people. If only everyone would be like this... It would be a better world!

It still makes me sad that some people believe that they must keep the secret alive instead of bucking the system and reaching out to help an adoptee and their offspring.
