Dear Ms NiLoughlin
I am writing in regards to your application to be Named in the Ontario Adoption Disclosure REgister dated April 10 1996.
I am pleased to advise you that your birth daughter has also submitted an application indicating her interest in meeting and sharing information, if you are both agreeable and consent to the disclosure.
We have asked the Children's Aid Society of Toronto to provide services in helping you re-establish contact. A counsellor from that agency will be in touch with you to make further arrangements. You should be aware that in some societies, due to workload issues, there is a delay before the counsellor can provide this service.
I am also informing your birth daughter of your registration.
I hope that you are pleased with this information and that this will prove to be a happy and rewarding experience for both of you.
Sincerely

Date: 2003-04-02 03:06 pm (UTC)I'm sure you've heard all the advice to birthmothers. As someone who has been on the other end of the process, let me just say that even though there have been some strained moments in my relations with my birthmother, I'm overall really glad that we got to meet and to know each other.
If you'd like, I'd be glad to put you in touch with my birthmother so you can get her thoughts and feelings. Honestly, the two of you remind me of each other a little, now that I think about it. She's been pretty heavily involved in the adoption community, specifically with Bastard Nation and some other groups, although she has gotten out of it recently, since it was just too much work.
Good luck, and I hope all goes well for you!
