HOLE IN MY HEART is a birth mother's story told by the brave woman who defied convention and in 1975 broke the silence of women who had lost children to adoption. An award-winning journalist and a pioneer in adoption reform, Lorraine Dusky tells the heart-breaking story of relinquishment, reunion and redemption as she and her daughter navigate new territory in building a relationship and Dusky becomes an outspoken advocate for opening sealed birth records for adoptees. Psychological research places her story in a larger context and illuminates the hard truths that are at the center of every adoption-loss, guilt, abandonment and an incomplete sense of identity. Her daughter, the adoptee with two families, also speaks of the complications and uncertainties that infuse her life. Numerous footnotes.
