Redefining Family : A Birthmother's Path to Wholeness Paperback / softback

Paperback / softback

Description

This unconventional memoir tells the story of a kinship adoption from the perspective of a birthmother. 

Seventeen and pregnant, Alycea spends her senior year planning for the future. The only way she can give her daughter a stable childhood is to place her for adoption. 

Even in ideal circumstances—a voluntary placement in an open adoption with generous adoptive parents—a birthmother grieves the loss of her child. With a broken heart and heavy past, Alycea must figure out how to keep moving forward, build her own life, and walk the fine line required to keep the adoption open. 

Her path to healing means redefining what it means to love, to be a good parent, and to be a family.
