- I am adopted. I have always wondered what my birth-mother went
- through in 1962-1963. I imagine being sent to our small town from
- elsewhere to have the child in secret. I have wondered what she would
- have done if she had a choice. It is easy and selfish for someone to
- say that they are adopted and against abortion because they wouldn't
- be here if she had aborted. The courage is to reason beyond this and
- to imagine what it must have been like for her. To this day, I too
- think that a free choice should have been available for her.
