Lost Son?

  • Adams, Lawrence P.

This is the true story of a child born to a nineteen-year-old unwed mother. Placed lovingly for adoption, he is instead thrust into the quagmire of the Michigan foster care system. “Stability” would be a word found in a dictionary, not in daily life, as he is moved fourteen times in eleven years. He is finally rescued and given a “home” at Boys Town. At eighteen, cast into the world of the unknown, without anyone or anyplace to call home, he goes forth with only hope and determination. Growing into adulthood, he searches for birth parents, an unknown heritage and sexual identity. Discovery of “true self” enables him to confront and overcome brutal and emotionally damaging realities from childhood that can no longer stay buried deep within his memory. This is the story of his difficult life battle and his ultimate victory— healing!
