The Sound of Hope
A True Story of an Adoptee's Quest for Her Origins

Welcome to my website.  Please stay awhile and look
around. You can read an
excerpt and get a peek inside my
memoir, or read the many
reviews.   There is also a links page
filled with many online  resources available to everyone in the
adoption triad.

I'm passionate about sharing my lifelong experiences of being
an adopted individual as well as my message that 'Original
Identity' is a basic human right.  I know what its like to grow up
with that inner need to "know" about my roots, but at the same
time feeling "deeply connected" to my adoptive family.  I wrote
The Sound of Hope to demonstrate that Adoptees have a need
to know everyone who has touched heir lives ... the family they
grew up with, and also family members connected to their
origins.  

I welcome
feedback from all of my readers and wish everyone
a Happy Fall,
