Darcy: When a White Christian Joins a Black Church

For citizens like Courtney Humbaugh (and me), finding  our most basic personal health history means fighting a maze of government laws and regulations. 

Orphans, foster kids… ANY adult can get their original birth certificates and the DNA history that goes with it no problem. Not adoptees. 

Now Courtney and many other adult adoptees, birth parents and adopting parents are trying to change that old law in our home state of Georgia.

With the vast majority of lawmakers in favor, why is it taking years to get a vote to the floor and the bill to the Governor?

Courtney Humbaugh Fights For Adoptee Rights

Colleen makes it sound like I forced her to talk to me on tape. Judge me if you must. 

It’s hardest to listen to the women closest to me in my own family. Especially when what they have to say is, “You don’t listen.” 

My 28 year old daughter and I talk volleyball , HAIKYU!! (The Japanese anime series on Netflix), backpacking solo in Europe for 100 days, Taylor Swift, and brain science.

 Keep up.

A conversation with my youngest daughter, Colleen

Jamie Weiss was adopted as a child. Now she’s a mother herself. We speak from common personal experience as only adoptees can. Now Jamie and lots of us are asking Georgia lawmakers to treat adopted people the same as foster children, orphans and every other citizen - and give us our original birth certificates. Why is that so hard?
