I gave birth to a daughter, Melissa Ann in St. Louis, at the Booth Home on January 10, 1969. If you would like to meet me I would be grateful. I am just now getting over the guilt and shame of letting you go after reading the book, "The Girls Who Went Away." I don't want or need anything from you except to know you are okay. I pray that you have had a good life. You were a beautiful baby.
