The discovery in my mid-thirties that I am adopted had such a profound impact on my life that I wrote a book about it. It's called
Someone's Daughter
and recounts the search for my birth mother, our reunion and the development of our relationship. It's available from online retailers
Exclusive Books
,
Kalahari
and
Loot
.

That sounds really interesting, Aurette. I can't imagine how it must have affected you to find out something so deep later on.

It was extremely traumatic and affected not only me but also my husband and children. It took a long time but I found healing, which is why I want to share my story with other adoptees and others touched by adoption.
