An Adoption, a Search, a Reunion.<\/h2>\n

Adoption seen through the eyes of an adoptee in Quebec, whose search for origins is shaped by personal, sociological, and legal questions. Through a deeply intimate narrative, Sylvie B\u00e9rard places the adoptee at the center of this essay, exploring the multiple dimensions of adoption and shedding light on the lived realities of adoptees and the challenges surrounding access to one\u2019s origins in the context of a closed adoption.

Born in 1970 at Montr\u00e9al\u2019s H\u00f4pital de la Mis\u00e9ricorde, Sylvie B\u00e9rard was adopted at two and a half years old. In 2019, after more than thirty years of searching, she reunited with her family of origin, an experience that became the catalyst for her first book, Mamy Blues: An Adoption, a Search, a Reunion<\/strong>.<\/p>\n

After seven years in California and an early career in museum studies, Sylvie shifted toward holistic medicine and completed her training in acupuncture. She has maintained a private practice in Montr\u00e9al for over twenty years. She is the mother of a teenage son and an enthusiastic taekwondo practitioner. Mamy Blues is her first book.<\/span><\/p>\n
