Real Alberta Adoption Stories

“At the age of 20 I found out I was pregnant, and although it was unplanned I found Edie while she was working for another agency; she was absolutely wonderful. She walked me and my baby’s father through everything and she even made the 3 1/2 hour drive days earlier than anticipated for our meeting - because I had my little girl 7 weeks early. She is an absolute God-send for all the hard work that she does to help both the birth family and adopted family through everything that she can absolutely help with. Having given my daughter up for adoption has had its hard times but it’s also had it's good times. The hard times are thinking that I made a big mistake giving my baby up but the good times, by far, outnumber the bad because I see from the emails, letters and pictures that she is a very happy and loved little girl. And I wouldn't change it for anything in the world especially knowing that with the health issues that she has are being taken care of properly with her being closer to all the right doctors”- KJ

“I just wanna say thank you! You’ve helped me pick an amazing family. Without you, none of this would have been possible. This is the hardest thing I have ever had to do but I know it was the best thing to do.” - A Proud BirthMother July 2015
