Mary Gallert was adopted and was lucky that her adoptive parents were open about her adoption and encouraged her to ask questions. However, she struggled with feelings of abandonment as she got older and was curious about her birth parents. She was able to find her birth mother and they formed a bond, but finding her birth father has been more difficult and caused conflicting feelings.

Communicative Adoptive Parents
Mary Gallert was lucky in many
respects when she first found out
that she was adopted at the age of
6. Instead of stonewalling her and
refusing to let her know anything
about adoption or her birth
parents, her adoptive parents
offered all of the help that they
could provide and encouraged her
to be open and honest with her
feelings and questions.Meeting a
birth parent for the first time will
put the fact that you were adopted
in extremely sharp focus, which
can cause a lot of distress for
those who aren’t prepared.

Questions About Adoption
When Mary Gallert first found out
that she was adopted, her adoptive
mother encouraged her to ask as
many questions as she needed to
about the situation. However, it
wasn’t until she reached adolescence
that the situation truly began to
weigh on her, though she put on a
charade of normalcy while she was
attempting to deal with this inner
turmoil.Mary Gallert knows from
first-hand experience that there are
many issues that adoptees will face
during the course of their lives,
particularly as they start to mature
and begin asking questions about
their situation.

Meeting Her Birth Father
Mary Gallert was happy to have
established a relationship with her birth
mother before her passing, but she has
found it much more difficult to find her
birth father. Her mother simply broke
down and cried when she was asked
about him and Mary is now dealing with
conflicting feelings about whether she
actually wants to meet the man who
abandoned both her and her birth mother
in their times of need.As Mary Gallert
grew older she began to become more
curious about her birth parents and
began to think about trying to find them
in order to resolve the issues of
abandonment and rejection that she was
struggling with.

Feelings of Abandonment
As Mary Gallert matured and began
thinking more about what it means to be an
adopted child, she started experiencing
feelings of abandonment. Though her
adoptive parents did everything that they
could to help, the question of why she was
given up for adoption in the first place
continued to eat away at Mary until she
was finally able to track down her birth
mother and meet her directly.Mary Gallert
was lucky when she met her birth mother
for the first time. Despite having done little
in the way of preparation for the meeting,
the pair managed to forge a bond
extremely quickly and established a
relationship as a result.
