Darryl Nelson - I am adopted, I was adopted
Manage episode 342429320 series 2902119
Darryl Nelson first shared his personal experience of discharging his adoption in Queensland with us in our Jigsaw Queensland newsletter, Bits & Pieces Summer 2020 edition. Darryl was born in Brisbane in 1964 during the closed and forced adoption eras. He first discovered he was adopted when he was 14 years old, and uncovered further information about his adoption later, when records were unsealed. Darryl’s discharge was successful in 2020, however, it wasn’t an easy road to get there. Working on his own, it took Darryl 18 months to build a case that took only 20 minutes to hear.
Each person undertaking this process experiences it differently. If you are considering pursuing a discharge of your adoption, we recommend that you have as many supports in place as possible.
This episode discusses adult themes and listener discretion is advised. For more information go to http://www.jigsawqueensland.com/episode-notes
Your host is Dr Jo-Ann Sparrow - President of Jigsaw Queensland (www.jigsawqueensland.com)
