New episodes every Wednesday. Adoption. CSA. Addiction.

I am a survivor.

My name is Kevin.

Before that my name was Stephen. 

It’s one thing to say I’m adopted. It’s quite another to tell you I was a drug addict at 12 and a prostitute by 15. Using parallel timelines and themes, “Dear Stephen Michael’s Mother” chronicles my adult search to find my birth mother in the context of my addiction and survival. It’s a story about being lost and finding an unknown family, about struggling through both the emotional and bureaucratic roadblocks of the adoption experience to become who you truly are.

My journey from abandoned to reunited, from addicted to 33 years sober, from a high school dropout to a master's in education, continues.

Join me.
