I'm back in my hotel room. Alone. Tired. Sick. Emotionally drained. Happy. Sad. Disappointed. Grateful. Blessed. Before I came on this trip, at the last minute I decided to make an arrangement with a long time Holt staff member in Korea to go with me to the City Baby Hospital hoping she could help me find out anymore information regarding my beginnings. The adoption journey is like a roller coas
ter ride, with ups and downs, twists and turns, blind spots and all the while your heart is in your throat. I've shared my story with everyone but my story continues as I search for my first year of life in Korea. I didn't find out much today, as the roller coaster has now taken me to yet another facility in another city, so I decided not to go today. I did find out that I was probably abandoned when I was five months old and in three different facilities prior to being in my orphanage at 15 months of age. My story isn't done, but I have to be patient. I hope to continue this summer with my search so once again, stay tuned.
