Hi There again I joined genes reunited like everyine else with intention on finding my long lost relations......well i joined on the 03/03/05 and since then i have never looked back, i was in very difficult position as i was neither adopted or had any paperwork given to me by my foster parents.....so all i had to go on was my birth certificate, entered these details and with a lot of help from Bernice on here, (to whom im eternally thankfull) and my eagerness at wanting to find my birth parents i have located a whole new family.....I didnt know existed....My Darlins Sister Elizabeth, and her family...which has given me a beautifull niece and a handsome nephew and a marvellous brilliant great nephew, we have spoke on phone and on msn for lenghts of time over last 48 hours and are meeting up in the VERY near future............I have also found out that I have 2 other sisters (twins) and 2 brothers as well...whereabouts unknown at this moment in time...so waht im trying to say people is that no matter how little info you have to go on or how despondent you may get in your task PLEASE PLEASE NEVER GIVE UP......you will get there one day..as i have done....im still searching for rest of family and parents but now i have my darling big sis to help me :). Everyone here is so helpfull and caring, if i can help anyone please contact me.... Good luck to you all in your endeavours Patricia Jones UPDATE Well I know i said me and my sister were meting up soon, but I didnt expect it to be as soon as it was lol, my fantastic sister surprised me on my birhtday 8th March and turned up on my doorstep...WOW what a day it turned out to be a rollercoaster of emotions but the best day of my life....I felt complete at long last and it was like the last 45 years had never happened and we had being together all our lives.....we are so alike and so close even after only a week the strong bond is immense between us...we talk every day on the phone or msn.......and she is coming to see me again soon and bringing my niece and great nephew with her next time...more tears lol.....so what i would like to say to GR is A VERY BIG THANK INDEED FROM MY SELF AND MY SISTER LIZ...our family continues to grow day by day......we cant thank this site enough for bringing us together once again....THIS TIME WE WONT BE LSOING EACH OTHER... Good Luck to everyone in there searches and never ever lose faith and hope...... Regards Patrcia and Elizabeth Jones THANK YOU GENES REUNITED
