In this heartfelt monologue, Speaker A recounts how she gave birth to her daughter Crystal at age 18 while struggling with drug use and uncertainty about the child's father. When she was arrested a year later, Child Protective Services removed Crystal, and she lost all visitation rights. At age three, Crystal was placed in a sealed adoption, cutting off any contact. For four decades, Speaker A never stopped looking for her child, enduring the pain of separation and the uncertainty of her legal status. Twelve days before the recording, she discovered Crystal on Facebook, confirming through personal conviction that the woman she found is her daughter. The speaker expresses overwhelming joy and a desperate need for Crystal to recognize her as her mother, marking a transformative moment after 40 years of searching.

My little girl was taken from me at 11 months old, and I have never, ever stopped searching for her. I got pregnant with Crystal when I was 18 years old. At the time, I was on my own. I was out there using drugs, and I don't even know who Crystal's father is. After Crystal was born, 11 months later, I got arrested, and CPS took Crystal away from me. I tried to get Crystal back, but things was just too hard. I was very young, uneducated. I lost all contact and visitation rights with Crystal when she was about a year and a half. At the age of 3, she was adopted, and of course, it's a sealed adoption. 12 days ago, the most amazing thing happened in my life. The child that was taken away from me when she was 11 months old, I found her off of Facebook. That absolutely changed my life. For the first time in 40 years, I was able to talk to my baby. I am 1,000% sure that Crystal is my daughter. I just need her to know that I am her mother.
