When Susan was a teenager, she set out to find answers about her birth parents. As an adoptee, she longed to know where she came from. When she eventually reunited with her birth parents as a teenager, she thought she\u2019d finally feel at peace. She couldn\u2019t have known that many years later, she\u2019d find herself in a very similar position, only this time longing for her own child. We follow Susan\u2019s deeply personal story, taking a look at the interplay of money and adoption, and how history can have a way of repeating itself.
