Seoul, June 2000:
“What’s happening in my head and shaking heart while I’m climbing those stairs is hard to express in words. You are so close now. The door opens and in the midst of everything I worry that I don’t really know how to greet the foster mother. It’s not the custom to shake hands in Korea. I just smile a little and mumble something in inexperienced Korean.”
To not be able to “have children” when you want can mean a life crisis and enormous sadness. This book explains that and the big happiness in getting a child through adoption.
