04: A Part of the Family

Does being adopted change our relationship to our parents?

We were all siblings. They were our parents.

In this episode, I interview Anne Marie, a social worker, about the experience of losing her mother and father, and how being adopted fits into her experience. Anne Marie is my best friend’s mother. Her daughter is currently facing a scary battle with cancer, and she faces grief again.


In the episode, Anne Marie talks about:

  • Her parents’ family-style and why she bonded so well with them.

  • Being a caregiver to both parents, plus her daughter.

  • Her current views on grief, having gone through witnessing her mother with cancer twice, and now her daughter.
