A description of our secondhand books is not always available. Please contact us if you have a question about this title.Author: Lynda HoldenFormat: Paperback Number of Pages: 320150,000 adoptions took place in Australia between 1950 and 1975. It is estimated that one in 15 was forced. Proud Dhunghutti woman, laywer, human rights advocate and former midwife Lynda Holden tells her own heartbreaking story and of her fight for justice. In 1970, Lynda was eighteen, unmarried and pregnant when she was forced to give her baby up for adoption. She was sent by a doctor to a Catholic girls' home for unmarried mothers, and told she'd have no hope of keeping her child because she was Aboriginal. After twenty-six years, Lynda was finally able to make contact with her lost son - but the much wished for reunion didn't go well. When she looked into the adoption records, she found a web of lies - lies about her family, the baby's father, her 'consent' for the adoption - and her Indigenous heritage had been completely erased. So began a quest for justice: Lynda took on the Catholic Church in an attempt to right the wrongs of the past. In this incredibly powerful memoir, she sheds light on the lasting impacts of forced adoption on mothers, children and their families, and gives voice to the countless women who have been silenced for generations.

Taschenbuch. Condition: Neu. Neuware - Melissa thought her family was normal and took all her mother's comments on board. She believed she was no good and was a burden to her mother, father and siblings. She was often sick, and her mother couldn't wait to tell everyone about the 'problem' child. Melissa used self-talk to keep herself together.Melissa grew up and found she was not only good at her chosen profession; she excelled. She was earning six figures, had a company car, international and interstate travel, a husband, a beautiful home and was at the top of her career.Cerebral Atrophy then struck. Melissa's world fell apart. She lost everything. The self-harm that she had kept a secret now became suicidal ideation. She began a conversation with her illness, and it kept her resilient. It wasn't until she went into therapy that she discovered truths about her mother that shattered her perception of 'normal.'So began a journey of self-discovery, reflection on the past and the search for what makes life meaningful. In this powerful memoir, Melissa shows us how we can find joy despite what has happened in our lives and how, when facing an unknown future, it is more important than ever to seek out what makes our lives matter.
