Michele also decided to give the baby up for adoption. Nine months later, she gave birth to a healthy baby boy and only got to hold him for a short time before he was given to his new parents.

The baby was named Martin Schmidt. He grew up with loving adoptive parents, but he also learned that he was adopted. For a long time, it didn’t bother him until he was 36 years old and he learned that he was going to become a father.
