I will also pass along your request for DNA testing.

I’ll try to get some answers for you in a day or two, but I can’t promise anything. I don’t know how forthcoming Marie will be.

When I was only 5 years old I overheard a conversation between my adoptive mother and her sister. My “mother” said she had received a letter from a man who lived in Shalampax and that he was certain I was his child. When I asked my “mother” about this later, she was not forth coming with any information. Unfortunately she died many years ago and I am still at a loss as to who this man is. How this man was able to track me down is anyone’s guess. Maybe Marie can answer this question.

As you know, I live in Arizona and I very well may make the trip to Big Sur to meet Marie. I don’t know when. I’m still in shock over this news and it will take some time for me to make any decisions.

This gets more and more shocking all the time. As I mentioned in an earlier post, your mother, or at least the woman who claims to be your mother, is Marie Kurveh. She seems to be quite wealthy and owns a five-star resort and a hippie-retro commune somewhere near something called Big Sur in California, if you’ve heard of that.

Marie never mentioned anything to Openfly about Marie having put you up for adoption. I don’t know why she would tell Openfly about you, but then fail to mention that. The stories from Marie’s time in Shalampax suggest she’s a free-spirit to the extreme. Maybe she didn’t want to be tied down with a child. But then why didn’t she have an abortion? She had no qualms about it while in Shalampax. I just don’t know. It is most puzzling I’m going to pass this information along to Openfly. Hopefully she’ll be able to get some information from your mother.

As I mentioned in this post, your father is a mystery that may never be solved. Marie doesn’t know which of several Shalampaxian men it might be. All we know is that he is Shalampaxian.

But now I have a question for you. If you didn’t know about your parentage, why have you, in the past, posted comments in this blog suggesting you are a Shalampaxian?

I want to apologize for the delay in responding to the news you released yesterday. Needless, to say, I was shocked to read that Marie is my birth mother.

I never knew my mother, I was left at an orphanage near New Orleans when I was just a tiny thing. Although I was adopted and raised by a very loving family, I’ve always wondered who my true parents are. Any information you could you have to lead me to either my father or mother’s whereabouts would be appreciated.

Sincerely,
MadMadMargo

I don’t know much about this MadMadMargo. It’s possible that she works for a living and hasn’t had a chance to respond yet. We’ll see.

On the other hand, given that she seems to regularly read and occasionally comment on the items posted to Shalampax Speaks, I’m wondering why she remains silent today. Is she perhaps confronting her mother, presumably Marie, about the specifics of her paternity? I’m not sure I would want to be in the room for that discussion – although I am nosy enough to want to hear all the juicy details.

It’s true that, unless she was showing more than could be explained as a little pudginess, it is likely that no one would have known that Marie was pregnant when she fled. However, I checked MadMadMargo’s blog. It shows an age in her profile. It’s not known exactly when Marie left Shalampax, but MadMadMargo’s age is such that, if Marie is indeed her mother, it is very possible and possibly even likely that her father is Shalampaxian.

As an intrepid, if that’s the word I’m looking for, journalist, you know I’ll keep you posted on developments as they happen or, at least, as I become aware of them.

How does anyone really know she was pregnant when she departed from Shalampax?

Lord only knows what other tidbits of scandal that Openfly may glean from her probing questions; please keep us posted on further developments.
