Pip	I found my son through Genes Reunited even though I wasn't actively searching back in Aug 2004. Several reasons why such as I didn't think I had the right to search, fear and I didn't know where to start. My son started searching in 1999 when he turned 18 but kept missing me as I moved a few times. My family also hindered our reunion as he found them quite quickly by telling him they didn't know where I was so our reunion was delayed almost 5 years. Within weeks of being reunited her started calling me mum which amazed me as we had never discussed what he should call me. At first it was a long distance relationship as we lived 260 miles apart but we did get to meet 3 times before he went to Canada. Son moved in with us on 21 Dec 2006 and stayed until recently when he moved in with his girlfriend. Was this answer helpful to you? Yes / No

Honest & Sober	It's good to hear a positive story. Though I hope all is well with your bio parents. I met my sisters about 15 years ago and still stay in touch. They live interstate a good 1800kms away, so I dont get too see them that often. But that one week I do its also a good time. We do talk on the phone often so that makes up for the time we dont see each others. Both are a few years older and have different personalities. We all have different opinions about almost everything; but they are just like everyone else in my life. Yet, that what makes them both great people. I came from being the oldest and maturest in my adopted family to being the youngest and childish one. :o) I've always could them sisters - Big Sis and Lil Sis. I dont know what else to call them. They are more than friends, but not quite family. We may not have grow up together but still at sametime we are family. Plus, its alot easier when introducing them to others just as my Sister <name>. Thanks for reminder, my Lil Sis's bday is also in July. The year has gone soo fast that my mind is still stuck in mid-April. I too have 3 nepthews and niece. All wonderful kids. They dont call me Uncle but that is fine. Uncle was my nickname throughout primary school and high-school so there is no loss there. I'm just Jayzeeeeeeeeeeee to them. My lil niece (well not so lil niece - 19 yrs old) is about to bring her own bunle of joy into the world. So I'm going to be a Great Uncle soon. My Big Sis is about to re-marry and I've been asked to walk her down the aisle. I said screamed "YES" down the phone and almost deafened her with the response. So I'm pretty overwelmed with joy at them moment. I hope all goes well with the re-union and everything is still strong in 15 years time like with mine. Was this answer helpful to you? Yes / No

Cambria	Congratulations! How old is your sister? And what is the age gap. I recently have had contact with my half-sister. It has been...difficult for me. I think part of that is just the fact that we are very different both in personality and age/stage of life. I'm glad you are having such a good experience with your sister!! If you have a chance to email me, I'd like to hear more about your experience with her to see if it may help me get a better perspective on my situation. Thanks!! Was this answer helpful to you? Yes / No

kidmindi	CONGRATS! Yep, I felt this way om Dec 29, 2008 when I found my brother on myspace...waiting for him to write back seemed to take years (it was 2 days cuz he was out of town). When he called it was amazing. I have wondered about him and looked for him since I was 14 (i'm 36 now). This year on his birthday, I finally got to tell him Happy Birthday...every other year I would remember him and be a bit sad because I didn't know him... In 12 days I will finally get to meet him face to face!! I am so excited I can't stand it. Saturday is my B day and when hubby asked what I wanted I told him my gift will be arriving 6 days late....I want nothing more than to finally give my little brother a big hug! And he comes along with a sis in law and a neice who is the same age as my older two kids.... Congrats again....any idea if/when you will get to meet face to face? Was this answer helpful to you?
