Recognizing the absence of written materials for women considering adoption, Ms. Foge and Ms. Mosconi were determined to produce a guidebook that would provide answers and support to potential birthmothers. This guide begins with an overview of the adoption process in this country and then gives input and consideration to women first finding out about their pregnancies. The Third Choice takes potential birthmothers through their pregnancies, the birth, the relinquishment process and the grief and recovery process aftreward.
GAIL MOSCONI is a native Californian and licensed clinical social worker.
LESLIE FOGE was born and raised in the San Francisco Bay Area, where she still lives and practices psychotherapy.
