As If
Wednesday, November 21, 2007. After 17 years of family reunionification I feel as if. My brothers and sisters. My brother was telling me about the day and he said to me. "We were all loyal to you Chris, none of us said anything good about him." I quickly pointed out to my brother that it was to themselves that they were being loyal , but his words made my heart soar and I had one of those rare moments where I really did feel as if. I was an important part of my family of origin. Tuesday, November 13, 2007.

An Adoptee's search for her Identity. Sign up to receive the next post in your Inbox. Wednesday, 30 November 2016. Self Reclaimed: 36 years on. On 15 March 2013, I had published a post entitled No Regrets. Which spoke about not wanting the fear of negative responses to control what I may choose to share. It has taken me a further 3 years to be able to face this fear. Or that I had been? After all, I was the only one without a choice in the matter of my own identity. The Stigma of not keeping it a Secret.

Involuntary (Im)migrant
International adoption creates involuntary immigrants. Unlike the millions of others who cross borders during their lives, our migration is completely involuntary. It's not a choice we, nor our families, make. Instead, it's the adoption industry that dictates who stays in the countries we are born in and who is sent overseas. This blog chronicles how these two aspects of our lives intersect. Thursday, April 16, 2015. Don't Revise the CCA2000; Stop Deportations. Automatic immunity from deportation for all.

I have decided to end this blog. I've had enough. There's no point writing, all I get are ignorant bits of advice from deluded do-gooders. For fuck's sake just get off my back. You, have no fucking idea what it is to me, YOU do not have to wonder. How's this - this is my life. I do not belong to your world. Links to this post.

For reasons I can't fully explain, I just needed to stop thinking of myself as an adopted person. After coming to grips with decades of denial, and thinking about it 24/7, I kind of overdosed.
