I am looking for my son, I gave birth to him on 5/22 or 23/1965 not 64', (sorry about the typy-o regarding the date). He was born in the late evening at Bannock Hospital in Pocatello, ID. I was 18 years old at the time of the birth, I turned 19 the following month, June. Jason Holiday was the attorney who arranged the adoption and Dr. White was the doctor that delivered my son.
After the delivery I was allowed to stay in the hospital for three days I believe. I was not allowed to see my child. I was also afraid that if I saw him I would change my mind. I left the hospital with friends from the college, and went to stay with my grandparents.
As a child we lived in Pocatello until I was ten years old. I grew up in Buhl and Pocatello. My mother taught school in both places. My father also graduated from Idaho State.
My mother was French Canadian and my father was Spanish Indian. I am olive skinned like my Dad, but I look like my mother, I am told that I look Italian. I had a learning disorder as a child, so did my siblings. Hopefully my son didn't suffer from any disability like that. I am a singer, I have a voice of an angel. I mentioned that to Mr. Holiday and told him to be sure to tell the parents who are taking my son, that if there is any signs of musical talent, to be sure to help him develop it. Also I learned that Mr. Holiday knew my Father and my Mother, when we lived in Pocatello.
I have been to Pocatello many times trying to find out about the son I gave up for adoption, with no luck. My Mother also did some investigating, we had a cousin who still lived in town, he was a state trouper and his wife was a nurse at the hospital. But with the laws the way they were, there was no chance of finding information.
I have thought about my son every day of his life. Never think for a minute that I gave him away because I didn't love him. I tryed to figure a way to keep him but I was young and dependent on myself at the time. In those days girls were shamed for having children out of wedlock, and I had nothing! I look back on that decision as the biggest mistake of my life. If I knew then what I know now things would have been different. I wanted my son to have a stable family, with a father and mother. I am from a broken home, and my bothers and I suffered deeply because of the break up. I didn't want that to happen to my son, I wanted him to be happy and secure, and wanting for nothing.
