Dear Robert,
You don't know me, but I'm your mother. My name is Jadus Gressi. I'm an actress, just like Cam.
It probably sounds crazy to miss someone you never knew, but I've missed you so so much. I love you. I wanted so badly to keep you, but I knew I couldn't.
I was barely eighteen when you were born and, I'll be honest, I was a junkie. I gave you up to keep you safe. I wasn't in a good place to raise a child. Just know that I never stopped loving you.
I remember when I held you in my arms the first time. You were so tiny and perfect. I remember kissing your tiny cheeks and thinking about how I was finally holding my baby.
But then I remembered who your father was.
I'd wanted so badly to raise you, keep you and pretend you were my boyfriend's. But when I looked into your face, I knew it could never be. You looked so much like him, I nearly cried.
So, I left you at the fire station the next day. One day. One day of loving you, that's all I allowed myself. Any more, and I wouldn't have been able to give you a better life.
Now you're so happy. You have two amazing mothers and a wonderful brother and sister. Cam and Magdalena are two of the best women I could've hoped to have adopted you.
The last thing I said to you before I gave you to the fireman was "I will always love you". And that's still true. I don't know if you want anything to do with me. If you don't, that's fine. But if you'd allow it, I'd love to be part of your life.
Love from, Jadus Ymara Gressi
Your mother
