Adoption is often painted as a happy, inspirational act—a baby finds a family and lives happily ever after. But the truth is that adopted children experience displacement and rupture from their mother and that trauma can impact an individual for a lifetime. Adoption can lead to feelings of loss and grief not just for the adoptee, but for the biological and adoptive parents as well. This startling fact comes vividly to life in Janet Sherlund's heartbreaking memoir, Abandoned at Birth. In her literary debut, Janet Sherlund explores the complex issues so many adoptees and their parents grapple with, including the complicated emotions of rejection, loss, grief, denial, and shame.

In the last twelve months, nearly 110,000 Americans died of an overdose. Researchers in the American Journal of Public Health found that more than one in eight Americans had their lives disrupted by a drug overdose death. Now, two mothers who understand addiction are collaborating to remind us that this can happen to “good” families and there are other solutions we should consider as we move forward to address addiction and overdose.  Pat Roos is a liberal university professor. Christina Dent is a conservative-evangelical Christian. There are many differences between them from age and hometowns to educational backgrounds, religion, and politics. But both mothers have been on journeys to better understand addiction and the overdose crisis. Through that process they have become activists. Despite their differences, Roos and Dent are remarkably similar in the kinds of solutions they see for the overdose crisis: harm reduction methods and moving from a punishing criminal justice approach to one based on public health.

Tyler Pagel, Susan G. Komen Development Director in Seattle talks about the upcoming Susan G. Komen MORE THAN PINK Walk in Seattle on Saturday, September 28 at the Woodland Park Zoo in Seattle. The MORE THAN PINK Walk, Susan G. Komen's largest fundraising event series, evolved from the Race for the Cure in 2018. Each year, we host over 100,000 participants at our 40+ in-person (and one virtual) walks across the U.S. Since the first Walk in 2018, our participants have raised more than $60 million dollars and continue to be a part of a community committed to our vision of a world without breast cancer. With inclusive and accessible options for people of all ages and abilities – including breast cancer survivors, those currently in treatment for breast cancer and people living with metastatic breast cancer – the Walk provides participants the opportunity to come together and connect in meaningful ways. It allows us to focus on sharing our passion, sharing our stories and connecting with others, all while fundraising to support life-saving programs and research. Our finish line is a world without breast cancer, and we know the only way we can get there is together. More Than Pink Walk
