Hey, it’s Tana Mongeau, welcome to my channel OR WELCOME BACK to my channel...

Jk, hey guys I have a story to tell you that I just felt like sharing because of how amazing this experience has been. 🥰

So, at 3 months old, I was adopted. I was adopted with my brother who is a year and 2 weeks older than me. At that time our mother was a druggy and a teen mom who just didn’t have her stuff together to take care of two babies. At 19, she got arrested and while serving time, she developed cancer and we lost all connections after that. Growing up, none of us knew whether or not she was alive or what had happened to her. I have known I was adopted all of my life and the missing pieces of my life were such a huge factor in the development of my mental illnesses. I went years and years begging to know who my family was. It took 18 years for one small thing to happen. Facebook. I was going through a tough time and moved in with my dad and step mom only to find out that my little sister (a year and 4 months younger than me) had contacted me through my adoptive father. She asked to know us and meet us but he hadn’t seen the message that had been sent OVER a year before... I added her and instantly I felt relief and like a new person. She later told me our mother was still alive and I connected with her as well and she had a little girl who is now 10... This was all so overwhelming for me because she was also adopted so I didn’t think our mother was doing good at all... A few months later I find out I have another sister who’s 3 years younger than me. So, all together there are 5 of us. My brother, me, and our 3 little sisters. It’s almost been two years since I found them and I don’t know where I’d be today if I hadn’t. My life changed drastically the moment I found them and I’ve never been happier. I’ll attach some pictures. 💜 Ask questions if you think anything is missing that you wanna know. 🥰
