Episode 12: Thoughts on the Loss of One's Mother
Manage episode 461273023 series 3568158
Real life brings challenges that include grief and loss. Of course, this is true for those in the adoption constellation. As adoption coaches, we talk a lot about grief and loss in the context of a child adoptee losing their birth mother even as the adoption brings them an adoptive mom. But what about the adult adoptee? And how might the adoptive parent feel (and deal) with their adopted child's loss of their birth mom?
Two of the three hosts of this vlog and adoption coaches at Growing Intentional Families Together, Kim Noeth, birthmother, and Sally Ankerfelt, adoptive parent, have experienced the recent loss of their beloved mother. As many condolences were received by both, it sparked some thoughts among them on how it feels to lose a mom for those of us in the adoption constellation. While Kim is not hosting today as she tends to her and family's needs, hosts Sally and Sharon share their thoughts on losing a mother.
Join them for another insightful conversation.
