Adoption Research
In August of 2000 the state of Alabama opened adoption records for adult adoptees. [2] On the day that the records were opened I mailed in my form requesting my original birth certificate. Within 3-4 weeks I received a copy of my original birth certificate with my biological mother’s name and the name and location of the hospital where I was born. Using the location of my birth I determined which high school in Dale county, Alabama she would have attended. Using the age she was when I was born assisted me in determine a range of years that she would have attended high school. Using this information, I went to the Carroll High School web page and searched for alumni lists that contained names and email addresses. I then email several alumni asking them if they knew Sandra Curtis and how to contact her because I had sensitive personal business to discuss with her. After about a week I finally received a reply from someone that knew her. The only holdup was that he wouldn’t tell me anything, he was only willing to pass my information on to her, so I agreed to that. [1] I can’t remember how long it was after giving him my information that it was I heard from her for the first time, but I can remember exactly what I was doing when I heard from her. I was sitting at my desk at home, talking to my mom on the phone and her exact words were “be careful you’re going to end up in her lap without being prepared for it.” Right about that time I received an instant message from my biological mother and told my mom “I think I just ended up in her lap.” [1]
Early Life & Education
1977 - 1980
After I was released from the hospital I went directly into the Alabama foster care system. I was in foster care until 24 Mar 1977 when my parents picked me up from the state Department of Human Resources in Montgomery, Alabama. My mom, Debbie McComb , was working at a friend’s law firm as a secretary when she received the call from DHR that they had a baby for her and my dad, Harris McComb . She got so excited she left his office unlocked and interrupted the court to tell him she had to leave and why. When they got to Montgomery, Alabama the social worker was trying to give them some basic non-identifying and health information about me but mom said all she could think about was hearing me in the next room.

Please let me hear from you by November 16 if you'd like to stay involved in the PGM project. If I don't hear from you by that date, I'll assume that other priorities are taking your attention and we'll remove you from the project and its associated google group.
