Lost and Found: A Memoir of Mothers

written by Kate St.Vincent Vogl

Review
A beautiful find . . . --Lorian Hemingway

A must-read for anyone touched by adoption. --Jan Schwartz

A terrific read! --Margaret Hasse

Product Description
I swore I would never let my birthmother into my life, but then Mom died of ovarian cancer and my birthmother, Val, found me through the obituary. Hard to argue with fate. Harder still to let go of childhood promises. This memoir explores what it is to be a mom and what it is to lose one. And so Lost and Found: A Memoir of Mothers is for anyone who has ever loved and lost (or maybe even found) a mother.





Lost and Found really found a spot in my heart!!!


Review
by Michele Benjamin


This book touched me deeply. It's a story of how Kate struggles with losing her mother to ovarian cancer and soon after receives a phone-call from a birth-mother who wanted to enter into her life. It is a very heartwarming story of how that birth-mother gradually became a part of an Kate's life and how the author opened her heart to understand herself in ways she never imagined. Her realness through this story kept me very intrigued. It was very heartwarming to me to see how Kate did not shut any of this down and how she worked to make it all fit into a blended family.
