Grateful Adoptee: Author Sarah D. Shearer Shares Her Adoption Story From Russia [S7E15]

Author Sarah D. Shearer joins ADOPTION NOW to talk about her adoption story. In her words, her story started off with little hope, "I was born with various medical needs and was left in a Russian hospital where nuns helped to keep me alive until I was transferred to an orphanage." The Russian orphanage was convinced that no one would want her, but a family in Thomasville, GA saw her picture and fell in love. This is an uplifting story filled with gratitude and grace towards adoption. Sarah has written a memoir called "Extra Ordinary" to share her positive perspective. She says, "no one can speak to adoption more than an adoptee." Listen to this episode and check out her book on Amazon!
