She wrote me a 10-page letter! She said she's always wondered about me. She sounds exactly like me and she looks exactly like me. I have two half brothers and a sister (I grew up an only child). She lives almost all the way across the country. We will let this relationship evolve mostly through writing at first. After all, we are still strangers, even though she feels extremely familiar.

I'm overwhelmed with emotion and I couldn't be happier.

Thanks for listening to all my rants.

And to all those people that think that birth records should be forever sealed, there is a statistic that over 95% of birth mothers are looking and have never forgotten their children. After reunion, it may not be fairy tale, but it's healing and filling in the holes. Support the movement so that others can experience the sheer joy that I am.
