Shirley Dumbleton's success story

Shirley Report 25 Nov 2005 03:31

I typed in the name of a brother I hadn't seen in more than 30 years and his name came up, much to my unexpected delight. I contacted him and he was just as pleased to hear from me as I was to be in contact with him.I could have cried when his message came back and he wanted to get in touch. I was given up for adoption by our mother when I was born and did not find out that I was adopted until I turned 18. If it wasn't for your web site we most probably would not have been in contact with each other. My husband recently travelled to England and met up with both my brothers and their family and they have decided to come out to Canada to visit. I can't wait to meet them alI. I cannot tell you how it feels to finally have some 'real' family, I truly am most greatful for your web site
