Meeting Jamie

This is the start of what will be a very long post from my journal. I started this jour­nal on July 1992 after finally receiv­ing con­tact from the doc­tor (who deliv­ered my son)  and helped my parents, and the adopting parents, tak­e my son away from me. Trust me, there is way more that hap­pened before then but… [Read More]

On July 8, 1992 I received a let­ter from the doc­tor who deliv­ered my son.  He wrote it on June 29th. To go back a bit, this is the doc­tor who I asked to help me get my son back, after he was taken at birth, and he told me he could no longer treat me… [Read More]

On July 24, 1992 I was so excited to see the letter from Dr XX, but I was also terrified to open it. The letter from Dr XX, dated July 19th, told me my son’s name, that he knows he was adopted and Dr XX talked to the adoptive mother who would talk to my birth son… [Read More]

August 4, 1992 I received a letter from Dr. XX saying my son wants to meet me. My journal says: “I’m looking at the lat week in August to go back.  I really want this to happen but I have to admit I am terrified.  Jamie said he didn’t want phone contact, he wanted to meet… [Read More]

My journal entry August 22, 1992 It is now 6:30pm and I’m at my Aunt’s apartment.  Very tired because I haven’t slept since Thursday (3 days).  A little wired because I haven’t been able to get a hold of Dr. XX.  I worry that something may be wrong.  I was late  calling Dr. XX but I… [Read More]

There was a lot of silence after meeting Jamie, a lot of tears.  But I was happy his GF was in touch with me.  She gave me hope. August 27th Jamie, and his girlfriend invited me to stay with them, and their son, at her father’s house for the weekend while her father was away.  I… [Read More]

August 29, 1992 From my journal “It’s about 7 a.m. and I can hear Jamie’s GF and my grandson in the kitchen.  I’m not sure if Jamie is awake.  I will give them a bit of time before I do downstairs.” Reading my journal of that day I can remember like it was yesterday and how… [Read More]
