A Woman Finally FOund Her Sister 45 Years After They Were Separated as Children = When They Met, Her Sister Looked at Her and Said, ‘I Knew Where You Were All These Years, but There Was a Reas0n I Couldn’t Reach Out’

Our father had left years earlier, and with no other family we could count on, we went into foster care.

We were still together, but no family would take us both.

When Grace was adopted, I felt like my heart had been torn in two.

We went into foster care.

« Grace, I will find you, » I promised when I hugged her goodbye that day. « I don’t know when, but I promise. Remember that. »

I watched her walk away, and it took everything in me not to run after her.

A year later, I was adopted too. My new parents took me across the country and gave me a loving home.
