Matthew Harris, turning to leave her child in her wake.As the years went by, Rhonda found it difficult to start over. It took her almost ten years of struggle to have a steady employment and a place to live.
But every day she was plagued by the guilt of leaving her kid behind. Rhonda went to the police for assistance, determined to find Matthew and make apologies. She was relieved to learn that Lincy, the flight attendant who had located her son, and her husband had adopted him.
In an attempt to see her son, Rhonda wrote to Matthew’s adoptive mother, sharing her tale. When 13-year-old Matthew finally saw Rhonda, he was enraged and rejected her. How his biological mother could have left him was beyond him.
Rhonda tried to explain herself to Matthew, but he just could not accept her as his mother. But Matthew warmed up with time. Rhonda was allowed to visit him on the weekends, even though at first he refused to refer to her as “mom.” Their bond became stronger during the ensuing ten years.
