	You need Jess's adoption thread, Ill try to bump it up. Tell you what, there is so much info, just enter adoption in the search box at the top and it will bring up lots of threads for you to look at. Thing is, does this lady know she is adopted? You will have no rights over getting information about her. You need to think about it carefully.
