just that really. I know it's going to be emotional. Not helped by the fact that I was up most the night being sick and with belly pains.

I know this is security for my son and closure for me but please forgive a falling tear.

You are truly amazing. I hope your sickness soon goes, and will be thinking of you as you (as always) bravely do what's best for your lovely Miracle. Take care of yourself, and go very gently.

Thank you for your support. I've just got back from court. It was the hardest day of my life. I'm no longer a mum. I know I did the right thing today but that doesnt mean I don't have the right to hurt. I need to grieve the loss of my child and learn to live without him.

Miracle you are his birth mum, you were, are and always will be. Please be kind to yourself. You have done all you can for now, you put him first.

Please make your life exactly what you want it to be, in the best possible way. Work, home, hobbies, life, relationships, the best they can be, because you are worth it.

When he is older, if/when he finds you, be in the best possible place you can be. That is all you can do now for your little one, and I hope you will make the very best of your life for your sake and for his.

When my little one is older and starts to think of his birth mum, I sincerely hope she will be doing just that.Making the very best of her life i na positive way.

Really, truly you will always be his birth mum.

Miracle, I am an adopted child. I just want to say 'Thank You'. I have obviously never been able to say this to my own birth mother, so please, may I say it to you on behalf of your child?

You have sacrificed a piece of your heart to see that he has a better life than you could provide for him, just as my mother did for me many, many years ago and I have been forever grateful and in my heart have honoured her, and now I honour you, for that sacrifice.

Go ahead and grieve, it's ok with me (not that you need my ok). It helps me to know that my own mother surely grieved for me even as she knew it was the right thing to do. And even if you never meet again, as my mother and I have never met, please remember that the piece of your heart that you lost today will be carried in his heart forever as gratitude to you.

Oh Miracle - how brave of you to go. Your son will know this. How hard for you.

You are a Mum - just a Mum without PR.

Sending you Thanks

Thank you for everyones support. Yesterday was the hardest day of my life and those were the hardest words I ever had to say. Now I have to find a new identity. I am no longer a wife, mother and daughter. I lost my mum and my marriage and now my son so I need to find something to concentrate on and that I think needs to be me. I'm continuing my therapy and am considering doing an accountancy course in September.

Thank you for asking. I feel quite fragile. I'm doing my best to put on a front and seem okay but I'm struggling. I've been doctors this morning and they have increased my anti depressants and I'm doing therapy but other than that I've just got to deal with it. I'm doing all I can to get better and hopefully it will pay off. I think it's just a process I have to deal with and get through
