I think, blogs were created especially for the reasons of comunicating people talking about everything (not onluy about weather, but about every aspect of our impersonal and personal life). Distant comunication makes you feel in safety, feel just normal about everything.

Her situation was similar in that she was 19, single and unable to care for a baby. She was pregnant with twins so she had a double whammy. My brother didn't survive, but still it would have been hard. <br /><br />I have a cousin who was also adopted and his birth mother found him.

I don't think my aunt gave them to him, she was planning on saving them until he was older. My aunt also wrote her once a year and gave her an update on my cousin. <br /><br />My aunt died when that little boy was 10, so I don't know what came Miss Notesyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16420657918320783568noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1784805490178260864.post-51153920539917840572006-11-09T12:08:00.000-05:002006-11-09T12:08:00.000-05:00Good luck in your decision making process.
