Hi everyone my name is Judy, I have PTSD and have scince I was 16 years old. I have been seeing a therapist for over 4 years but she hasnt helped me with this. you see I lost my daughter to adoption when I was just 16 years old, and I live in a very small town and they dont have someone who deals in this traumma at all. I was reunited with Tricia in 2000, I have seen her only once. Hope to make some friends here.

Judy and Shellyanne I sure wish I could be of help to you all. It is so, sad to thing of all the young girl that have been in your place. Either miscarried or had to give their child away do to young age.

I would rather see someone young if their parents cannot help raise the child give that child a chance of life by allowing it to be adopted but, that is helpful for the child at the time. It does not help the mother of that child who for all means is still a child herself.

It does say alot about that young mother and her maturity and how she thought more of the child instead of herself and to that Judy I applaud you dear. How hard it must of been to adopt your child out. How loving it was for you to do that also. I do hope that one day perhaps you will get to prove that love to your child but, if not just know you did the right thing at the time. Put your mind at ease knowing this and let God deal with the rest of it. I know that sound empty right now but, it is the only way peace can come to you.

Shellyanne, it is sad to hear of the Miscarriage's you have had but, not everyone is to have kids. I feel sometimes God just says no because, he can use you in some better way. I know some wonderful people that just love kids so, much. They are good christian people. They have done everthing possible to have children but, to no avail. This girl is a special education teacher. She helps so, many children with learning problems. I told her one day that she is needed so, bad as a loving teacher that she is to so many hurting children that perhaps this is her calling from God. Perhaps this is her ministry for God and to not question it as to why they have no children of their own. They already have many children and who knows what her teaching can do for those children. If she really must have a child adopt one this is again helping instead of being greedy asking for one of her own. I have a son that is adopted and no one would ever know if I did not tell them he is adopted. He was 18 mos old and I could not possibly have loved a son anymore nor asked for a better child than him.

Each of us has a role in life to play. Ok, so, it doesn't play the way we would like for it to that doesn't mean it is not going to be a good life. It is just a bit different life thatn what we dreamed it was going to be. Perhaps it will turn out better becasue, it was not the way we dreamed it to be. God knows best what we need better than we do. Just wait on it. Stand still and watch the glory of God. Ok, so, I am being or sounding religious. Does that change the thought at all of what I am telling you? NO! Bite the bullet and deal with it and go on with life. You might be surprised at the life you can have. lololol
