I'm meeting my birth brother for the first time tomorrow... *gasp
 

Talked on the phone once 9 years ago and once today. He found me a few days ago to tell me that my birth mother died... killed herself actually... ON my birthday even... nice eh? She suffered her whole life long with drug addiction.. heroine, mostly.. meth at the end. 7 kids total. This one is 32, very stable regardless of being in 52 foster homes.. similar situations for all of them actually... and he lives like 40 minutes away.

I'm NERVOUS... We clicked very well when we spoke years ago on the phone and again today same thing so I'm sure it will go good. Blah anyway... Crazy week that's for sure. Wish me luck!

Wow..I actually met my twin brother for the first time about 10 years ago.Mom gave him up for adoption 35 years ago when the old man left her with 3 kids..back then the child support laws were non existant and they didn't support.I'm sure you'll have plenty to talk about

best of luck with the meeting

So did you grow up in foster homes or were you adopted fairly quickly?

I hope it all goes well for you best of luck.

Good luck to you buddy!:)

I spent 10 days in the hosp while they tapered me off the methadone. Her and my birth father had met in the methadone clinic... lol I dunno why that makes me chuckle. Then I went to a foster home for 5 months.. then my parents got the "call they'd been waiting for for two years" and the rest is history.

Oh so they took you right after you were born. Thats good.

sorry to hear about your birth mother and best of luck meeting with your brother

Best of luck

Wow hope it goes well for you, I'm adopted as well :)

DH

Wow.. I wish you the very best of luck!

That's heavy.

Best of luck to you and your brother!

Whoa, good luck Rrred. Hope it's everything you are expecting and more.

Very Interesting. Your life would probably make a good documentary. I'm not saying that in a condesceding way either. I always find myself watching that type of stuff on TV.

I never met my father until i was 19. I'm 40 now. When I turned 40 I thought to myself this is the age he was when we first met. That was weird.

Wow, good luck on meeting him, that must be quite an experience!

Best of luck in meeting your bro girl, let me know what happend

Blah... now my ex won't call me back to watch my girl for a little while. Might not happen now.. God! He's an idiot!

interesting story.

best of luck with your meeting.

That's a very sad story.

My father died when I was nine months old. My grandmother - my father's mother - calls me one day to tell me my sister is looking for me. "But Grandma, I don't have a sister". Turns out I did but this information was just the start. I quickly flew home to NJ to meet her, only to discover I had a brother as well, both born by differnet mothers. Surprise.

hope it goes well

wow, thats something

You are real? This is not a happy thanksgiving picture that comes to my mind.

I wish you the best when meeting your brother..I'm sure it will be a bit strange but you will do fine. Let us know how it goes :)

Best of luck with the reunion,

I have a biological brother and sister or 2 out there I would love to get in touch with some day.

Not to mention the deadbeat dad who walked out on all of us I'd love to share a few "words" with.

I thought you were in your 50's?

Good luck and try to relax,it will be just fine you'll see :)

Best of luck.

WG

Have a great time with your bro. Update us later. :pimp

just remember, he's going to be very nervous too so take comfort in that :) (have a shot of Vodka before you go if it'll help calm your nerves). I think it's very exciting!!! I hope you two have fun and connect with each other and vibe on the same level :thumbsup

on another note: sorry to hear about you mom...and on your birthday? Lawd have mercy :Oh crap *HUGS*

good luck to you girl! Hope it goes well

I hope everything works out well, and you keep in touch.

I just found out I have a brother in Boise. I have yet to meet him.

I'm sure it's gonna be fine. :thumbsup

Hope it is going well with your brother

What a story! :( Sorry to hear about your mom, but I'm sure you'll be more than happy to connect with your brother and vice versa.

Wish you the very best!
