It Is Never Too Late

I would like to share my story of finding my birth families.

At age 60 I have just found my birth families, and it has been great. I am very lucky to have been accepted by both my birthmother's family and my birth father's family.

My mother had passed away before I met her son Gerry. But he has been happy to have a sister, as he didn't know about me until this January.

I have now located my father and have talked to him a few times. He is 82 years old, and his wife has passed away. He hadn't told his family about me until this past Sunday. I just had a call from my younger brother. He left a message on my work phone last night. I just called him, but he is at work until this evening. His wife said that they were all home on Sunday, Sept 28th when he told them they had a sister. She said they were quite surprised but are happy that he told them.

My father lives in Ontario, and he is coming out to visit me the week of October 12th. I am really excited about this visit, as I always wanted to know him. To talk to him, he seems like a very nice man and was happy that I had contacted him.

I just wanted to share this with people doing a search for their birth families, that it is never too late to have a relationship with them. I just feel very fortunate that they are accepting me.

Yours truly...
