Heartfelt Condolences Open Adoption Closing Greeting Card

"Heartfelt Condolences Open Adoption" Greeting Card: Each item becomes a bold and unique statement, and every true-to-life greeting card tells a story.

Front of Card: "Heartfelt Condolences."

Inside Card: "I'm so sorry to learn your open adoption closed at no fault of your own. My heart breaks for you. The betrayal and grief you feel must be unimaginable. Please know I'm here for you, and you aren't alone."

This card is sentimental for many reasons, especially for anyone who knows and loves a biological mother who has had an open adoption closed, at no fault of their own. I know many biological mothers who have had this happen, and the grief and loss they experience are extremely challenging to process and navigate, not only for them but for anyone who knows and loves them. I hope this card sparks some difficult conversations and validates the feelings of any of these mothers who have been betrayed in this way.

Fun fact: Why is all the emporium merchandise a dollar amount and 21 cents? I was twenty-one years old when I found and met my birth mother. It was the best day of my life and a symbolic experience in my adoption journey. Sadly, I met her once, and she shut me out forever. The best day of my life was the worst because I never heard from her again.

Twenty-one years of agony passed, hoping she would change her mind. But she never did. Surviving this abandonment and rejection has been one of the most harrowing experiences of my life, but I made it. At one point, I was convinced I would die from a broken heart, but today, my heart is healed, and I feel whole. I am here to share my story and let other adoptees know they aren't alone and their feelings are normal for a not-normal situation. Nothing is normal about being separated from our biological parents at the beginning of life.
