Linda Smith

Joined 2 years ago from USA. Last activity 2 days ago.

Hello! My name is Linda Smith. My photo is my fiance, Michael, who passed away 4-30-2010, after being bedridden, on life support and paralyzed since 2007. Doctors changed our lives forever in 2007.

I know the battles, I know the war that the disabled and their loved ones fight, including loved ones who are the caregivers. I took care of Michael at home for over 2 years, until his death.

I am a freelance writer, an affiliate marketer. 

I also have a variety of interests. You can find more articles at

I am also a mother and an advocate for the rights of adoptees, and an advocate against the big business of adoption whether it be private, through a private agency, or through the state system.  I hope to eductate the public so that they understand that adoption is not the answer to a temporary problem, that it harms both mother and child, a harm that is lifelong. The adoption industry is a multi-billion dollar industry that feeds offf of poor, single mothers who need help, not to be coerced  in any way to give up their child.
