Filled with fear, shame, and secrecy, Judy hides her pregnancy from her family for as long as she can!

Follow her story of love, trauma and letting go, in the early 1960s, where choices were few for girls who, "got in trouble!" "Letting Go is close to home for me. As someone who was adopted as an infant in 1963, I know nearly nothing about my birth mother and her journey. Although I've searched for years, I've never been able to find her. This book is what I'd like to imagine her story was. My real parents are the ones who raised me. They've both been gone for many years now, but they will always and forever be my parents."
