TITLE: “Secrets of the Father, A true story of a search for his birth parents that lead to a scandalous cover-up”
SPECIAL GUEST: Paul Aubin
At five years of age, Paul Aubin was informed by his parents that he was an adopted child. He couldn’t believe what his “parents” were telling him; they weren’t his birth parents, the Aubin’s adopted Paul from a home for unwed mothers in New England when they found out they couldn’t have children.
Paul went on to lead a relatively normal life in the 60’s and 70’s growing up on Long Island, New York. He didn’t give much thought to the circumstances surrounding his adoption until a health scare later in life motivated him to go on a search to find his birth parents. A journey that would be filled with twists and turns leading to a major cover-up to protect the identity of Paul’s birth parents involved in a scandal within the Catholic Church.
In his autobiography, Secrets of the Father, Paul speaks to the missing pieces of the identity puzzle that many adoptees experience. He shares with our audience their sense of abandonment and rejection by their birth parents, trying to answer the question “Who am I”, and the mystery of not knowing any links to your past or family origin. This has life-long implications. Paul’s personal journey is absolutely amazing with an outcome that you aren’t going to believe.
