Other Info	I was adopted from the New York Foundling Hospital on the East side in New York City. I was told that my B/M was about 15 years old at the time, that although the family wanted me, I was a reminder of an unwanted pregnancy. Too many details to put here!!! Very sad!! I was told by a psychic that I have a natural half-brother and half-sister. She told me that my B/F was a stateman in PR. I have no idea if anything this psychic said would be true, but she was a friend and wouldn't have the need to make anything up. I am now 45 years old with two daughters of my own. I would very much like to find out any medical information with regard to genetics that I need to pass on to my children. I would also like to let my B/M know that I understand and appreciate what she did for me so many years ago. I would like to thank her in person if this is at all possible.
