EPISODE 5 A NEW NAME

So…Bill went home and life went on for me.  We communicated by phone and eventually by internet.  Then another phone call.  He had managed to find, through “channels” – a reliable source, the name of our father.  I put out a search, then, when I didn’t get anythng for awhile, lost interest…….until I got a hit!!  a woman left me a message on one of the boards saying, “We need to talk.”  A little later, I got another message saying she wasn’t part of the family I was looking for.

Then it happened.  Another woman got in touch with me saying she belonged to that family and was pretty sure I was the sister she had been looking for for a few years….and she was instant messaging and had email she was willing to share with me.  I learned much about my background from her and even got pictures and names of other siblings.  When she saw a picture of me, and I saw some of the pics she sent, there was no doubt but that I belonged in that family.  What a thrill!
