without further ado...

I've been dying to tell you about this for weeks, and I finally can, because it's up. The podcast is eleven minutes long, and my part starts about halfway through. Also interviewed were an adoptive family and the founder of the agency I placed through, though this connection is not revealed in the story.

Emily came to my house one weekday morning while Naomi was at school and Miriam was out with her Poppy, and interviewed me for this podcast. She wore fabulous red shoes, which made me like her immediatly. I think I yammered on for an hour. I cried.

I think Emily did a great job on the story.

Oh wow. I just listened to the Podcast. I agree, Emily did a great job.

I'm so sorry, Kateri. :(

Emily did do a great job. and so did you. love you.

Kateri that is heartbreaking. You did a wonderful job in the interview but I can't help crying. I am so sorry.

I am so proud of you! Great job.

I'm downloading it right now.

I'm very proud to cyber-know you.

It IS heartbreaking.

I think it would be wonderful, in adoption classes, if we heard more not only from those who make it work and are happy, but from those who are NOT happy, both sides.

Because I stand firm in my belief that openness is right, and that birthmoms should have LEGAL rights to their agreements, just like adoptive parents should...and I think more people would agree with me if they heard more from moms like you.

Way to go, Kateri!

You are awesome, Kateri.

You were so great, so articulate, I was very impressed.

Nicely Done Kateri!

Wow. You were so well spoken, and the pain in your voice was so powerful.

Wow, you did an awesome job, I just wished it could be longer...

Oh, and Emily does mention that you placed your daughter through the same agency (she names the agency just before you start talking).

Kate, the podcast was great. You expressed yourself so elequently. I think you should email it to them. Let them know how you are percieved through other people as well as how you feel. Thinking about it, I wish I had been older when everything happened. I wouldve been there for you.

I think you sounded absolutely smart and beautiful.

I am so sorry for your loss.

It was a great podcast and you sounded brilliant - so strong, focused and clear.
