Description

this is going to come out in a short story and also combines a few things that make me feel "bad" and things that make me feel like a "bad-good!"
*When I was 24, I found out my oldest sister was really my mother. She had given me up for adoption and my Grandparents legally adopted me and I was never to know-she was raised as a sister.
welp-found out! then it got weird, she wanted to suddenly be "mom" which didn't feel right. My mom is who raised me. we all went on just awkwardly, my family is not open and huggy.
The thing that made me feel so "bad" was that she wouldn't tell me who my father was, or talk about him AT ALL. I wanted to know my ethnicity,among other things!
skip ahead 25 years and my mom has a stroke and is on life support ( 10 months now) and going through her papers I found this name and address, just got a feeling. I wrote him and it turns out he's my biological father. He was sworn never to contact me when I was adopted, but for 49 years he has been thinking of me. even had a baby pic of me in his wallet, and albums of my baby pics.
We have connected and I see him every 6 to 8 weeks( he lives in Cal. I'm in Utah) he's a wonderful man. Back then they both lived in Hollywood and were in the "biz" so to speak, my mom in movies, my dad an agent.
So I've basically lost a mother that I wasn't very close with but in that tragedy gained a sweet, loving wonderful father!
Mom still on feeding tube, we are all discussing the options, may take her off. she has been asking us to.
there's so much more to this story , but that's it for now =)

What a story...! D: I'm glad that something good came to you in the end, though.

Who would have thunk that one so fun-loving and cheerful would have had such a painful history? Clearly, you've done a whole lot of work to accept your story and move beyond that pain and loss. I am filled with admiration. Also delighted that you've been given a "new door" to peace and happiness. As for your mom's life support, I had to be the one who decided on ending my dad's life support and on withholding a surgery that might have kept my mother alive for a few days, but not likely. Both were decisions that ripped the heart out of me. All I can say is do what your mom wants because that's what she wants. Think of it as the ultimate act of love and sacrifice and be there as much as you can in her final days. I hope you'll keep me posted on what happens, and please feel free to write. Much, much love...

o...m...g.
speachless syme. in my mind, symea was raised in symealand, which, byw looked as a circus. just happiness and joy, colors and candies.
anyway. seems we all ate sharing some "serious" stories, and i feel so honoured and happy with this. seesm like we are not just virtual..but human.
(even naughty queen,hehehe! :D
and im so happy for you, because story has a happy ending now...

:)
hugs!

Wow! Quite the story. I can't imagine having your world turned around like that. It's so great that you've been able to regain that connection with your father!
And I didn't know you were in Utah.. I was just there for 5 weeks. :)
