Adopted in California in 1975, Jessica's family moved to Pennsylvania around the age of two. As a child, she slowly moved in with the neighbors when she realized her adoptive parents were not able to raise her. Recently, she has reunited with her birth mother and several members of that side of the family. She did not tell her Pennsylvania family about her search until after returning from meeting her birth family in Kansas City. It’s been an adventure ever since.To go directly to Jessica's interview, you can go to the timestamp: 10:21Also in this episode, Sarah and Louise discuss  The Baby Thief by Barbara Bisantz Raymond.
