  • Summary

  • For years now, I have had strained or missing relationships with all of my parents on paper and my biological parents. But, in the last twelve years, they have all passed away one by one—four people with whom I had four unusual or missing relationships.

    Two of them passed away in the last six months.

    As a result, my obsession with trolling for obituaries on Google has concluded. I won’t miss it because, like closed adoption, it’s torture and agonizing.

    How would you feel if the only way you might learn of your parent’s or family members passing was by conducting Google searches weekly or sometimes daily looking for obituaries? What if this went on for years or even a lifetime?

    How many of my fellow adoptees have found themselves doing this?

    How does it make you feel?
