Other Info	I am 36 years old seeking any information regarding my biological mother. I commend her for having the courage to do what in the end was best for me. I don't know that I am seeking any more than telling her I am o.k.. I have so many feelings that have developed over the years. One of the things I've always sought was just the fact that she is real. For me that would be the actual foundation of my life that I have struggled with for 36 years. I do not dwell on it so much any more as I have my own family to love, and cherish. But if she is out there I sure would like to know.

Other Information	I was told by the adoption agency, Catholic Charities that my biological mother was married but had been separated at the time of her pregnancy. The pregnancy was not for her husband. I was told she was not from the area but had stayed with a family in Dallas during her pregnancy. After the birth she then returned to her home where ever that may have been. She was of some hispanic background as well.
