‘Thank You’: Watch This Man’s Touching Message To The Birth Mother He Never Met

RYAN Jon has never met his biological mum, but if he ever came face-to-face with her the first thing he would say to her is “thank you”.

The Aussie radio presenter is, in his own words, best known for “stupid calls, fun topics and talking about the news of the day”, but he’s now shown fans a completely different side of himself.

In the moving clip, he talked about his adoption and how grateful he is that his birth mum made the decision to give him up.

Ryan was born in 1987, and was adopted when he was just six weeks old.

His parents, Mandy and Rod, had been unable to conceive, and he explained that one day they simply got a phone call that said: “There’s a baby here, come and pick him up tomorrow”.

He grew up as an only child in the Melbourne suburb of Eltham, and said he’s incredibly grateful for the way things have panned out.

Ryan revealed: “My parents were told they wouldn’t have children but now they’re my mum and dad.

“They’re awesome, they’ve given me a great life and I’ll love them forever.”

Ryan told news.com.au that he knows many women experience guilt after giving their babies up for adoption, but made it clear adoption was the best thing that could have happened to him.

The 29-year-old said: “I don’t really know what it was like in 1987, but now if someone gets pregnant and doesn’t want to have a baby, they just don’t have a baby.

“The odds of me being born and having great parents was pretty slim, so I’m just lucky I guess.”
