My son was adopted when he was two, he’s now 11; I haven’t seen him nor spoke to him since he was two/ mind u I begged for my boo uncle (name)’s help because I was in. A horrible position (addicted to drugs) but as I stand here today I fight for my sobriety….. so I guess my question would be since it was a closed adoption is there anything I can do to be able to at least see my baby again?

Thank you for reaching out and for sharing your story. I'm sure this is incredibly difficult, and I commend your courage—both in your fight for sobriety and in seeking to understand your legal options regarding contact with your son. The difficult reality is that once a final adoption decree is entered in Colorado, it is generally permanent and irrevocably terminates all legal rights of the biological parent. 

While your recovery and sobriety are tremendous personal accomplishments that you should be proud of, they do not create a legal basis to seek contact with your son. 

A realistic option for you is if someone in your family adopted your son, you may consider writing them a letter explaining your recovery, expressing your desire to have some role in your son's life (even if limited), and asking whether they would consider allowing contact. However, they would have full authority to make that decision. You would need to prepare yourself for the possibility that they may decide that contact is not in your son's best interests. If that happens, there is likely no legal remedy available to make the adoptive parents let you see your son.

I’m sure this is not the answer you were hoping for. The finality of adoption is designed to provide stability and security for adopted children, but I understand how painful that finality can be for biological parents—especially when circumstances have changed as profoundly as yours have. Because your case is unique, and we do not have all the facts, I recommend that you contact an attorney to have your case fully reviewed.
