Within me, without me is a collection of personal stories by mothers who have given up children for adoption.
Based on research spanning 40 years, it illustrates at first hand the effects of loss and separation, the agony of secrecy, the life-long yearning for information and, for some, reunion and eventual joy.
Written by Sue Wells, whose own experience as a birth mother has enabled others to speak out, many for the first time, this courageous and profoundly moving book challenges the need for secrecy and illustrates the healthy relationships that can develop in open adoption.
