Never Meeting Mother's Day | Adoptee & Adoption Greeting Card

"Never Meeting Mother's Day" Greeting Card: Each piece of clothing becomes a bold and unique statement, and every item tells a story.

Front of Card: "Before I could release the weight of my sadness and pain, I first had to honor it's existence. - Yung Pueblo"

Inside Card: "I know Mother's Day must be tough for you. In loving memory of your mother, you never got to meet. I'm so sorry. For the mother you never knew, her spirit shines through you. May you forever hold her in your heart."

The True-to-Life Greeting Card line was created and designed by adoptee Pamela A. Karanova to make room for real experiences that are often missing from traditional greeting cards. The collection includes themes surrounding adoption, adoptee experiences, identity, family, reunion, separation, grief, loss, DNA discoveries, NPE and MPE experiences, late discovery adoption, donor conception, estrangement, humor, difficult relationships, life transitions, and more.

These cards are part of a much bigger mission to create conversations around experiences that are too often minimized, misunderstood, or left unspoken. Adoptee mental health and suicide prevention are especially important parts of Pamela’s work, including her founding of Adoptee Remembrance Day – October 30th.

Whether a card brings comfort, starts a difficult conversation, says what someone has struggled to put into words, or simply brings a much-needed laugh, every True-to-Life Greeting Card was created with one thing in mind: REAL LIFE DESERVES REAL WORDS.
