i found my birth mother and her family when i was 22. it didn't go well, i am not sure why. I thought it had, but she never contacted me again, and i felt rejected again. I found her again when i was 42, and she didn't want contact. But a sibling did, my sister Bec. She came to my town for a week with her husband and children, and it was like I had known her all my life. I still have never seen a photograph of my birth father, and i would dearly like to just see a photograph before I die. I contacted him when I was 22, but he made it very clear he did not want anything to do with me. So I have never tried to contact him since. But, I want to know what he looks like. Does he look like me ??
I really feel for you. My situation is very similar, I was welcomed by my brother but my mother wished to keep me a secret and couldn't face meeting me. The second rejection is a lot more deep than the first but time is a good healer and we are lucky we have met our siblings. Some adoptees never meet any blood family. Hope you do get to see a photo of your biological father.
Hi, my name is Adrian and I have never met my father. For the first 26 years of my life I was lead to believe that my mothers ex partner was my biological father until I was told otherwise by my mum. I received a phoe call from my telling me that I was the product of an affair with a man who drank in the bar where she was working at the time, I believe the pub to be the Edinburgh or a name like that in Perth, Western Australia. The only thing my mum could tell me is his name is Kelly but was not sure if that's his first name, last name or nick name. This would have happened around July 1977 as I was born 9 months later. If anyone knows this man or knows of my mum (Ann) who had 3 other kids prior to me Michelle, Leanne and Andrew. The man I thought was my father is Michael. If this sounds at all like something you might have more details about then please contact me on this site by leaving a comment.
I live in Australia & have been searching for my father for over 20 years. We don't have a programme like yours here. Do you think you can help me? If so I will give more details.
What a wonderful show - I cry through most episodes - the two compares must be congratulated, they do the program with such caring and compassion - shows like this are truly wonderful
