Reuniting families (17)
My grandmother had a daughter she gave up for adoption long before she had my dad. They finally reunited a few years ago and I got to meet my aunt. It's cool. There are more people in my family who need to resolve their differences, or reunite but some may never happen. I have relatives who have gone to their graves never speaking again to their siblings after quarrelling over something stupid. Sad.

yes, it is sad Jetblack. I know as I become older, my family becomes more and more important to me. And there have been issues that we have resolved amongst ourselves. Let's face it....sometimes family are the only ones you can really count on to be there for you.
But how wonderful for your grandmother, your aunt, yourself and the rest of your family to be able to reunite after many years. I am sure it has brought closure to what was most likely a very painful time in your grandmother's life. I hope for all concerned there has been an abundance of acceptance and also that God will give you all many more years to build memories to cherish with each other.

How old are the children now? And is there a chance they will remember as they grow that they had a sibling at one time???

What a wonderful topic Pati...Thank you 
All I can say at this moment is that one day I hope that I will have the chance for a reunion. I haven't seen my son in over 12 years because my ex took off with him. He's been in hiding ever since. I just have to believe that has happened for a reason and pray that one day my son will come looking for me. Since he's 14 now, I think if I were to find him right now, I would have to just let it go until he's 18.
I believe part of that is still having the fear of my ex finishing what he didn't accomplish almost 13 years ago. When and if the reunion ever happens it will be a very emotional day with many tears of joy and sadness. Joy because I will once again have my son in my life and sadness because of all the years we missed out on.

I pray that the day will come for both of you Cris. I know from personal experience that the tears of sadness are soon overcome by the joy of finally being together again. I don't know all of the circumstances of your sons disappearance, but I do know a lot about agencies that are in place to help locate him. My feeling is to try now to find him. He may be looking for you as well. If you'd like to know more, feel free to email me. ...........Pati

I would say just go into it without any expectations. You may be greeted with open arms...or you may be unwelcome. At least you can say you at least tryed and now know how to feel.

I agree Lion about not having expectations. But I also believe that when you are dealing with lost loved ones, the hurt of being rejected after finding one must be absolutely devastating. So, I don't wuite understand your comment about 'now know how to feel'???

I guess I meant to say is that by not having expectations you would of already had straight in your mind already that either way you are prepared to deal with it.

Shortly before my wife passed away, We found our oldest daughter and her two daughters. They came to visit and it was a great two week reunion. My wife and I were thrilled. Unfortunately, my wife passed away before we could do it again. One of my lost granddaughters now lives with me. My daughter and other granddaughter now live in Az. to be closer to the family. I wish that all could have the success we did. oneggs
