I didn't get much response. posting it again. it is long but interesting story. please read

My mom had passed away for 3 years when my sister was on the plane to visit our family back home. She sees this lady that looks exactly like my mother and starts crying and later takes a picture with her. On her way out the plane, this lady sends my sister a flying kiss and waves. exactly the way my mom used to do it.

We have all seen the picture and she looks exactly like mt mom's twin sister would, if she had any. You know only very minor differences that our friends wouldn't notice, but we as her kids would.

My mom used to talk to us about how life used to be at her time when women were giving birth at home with the help of their midwives. Some were horrible stories that when midwives used to deliver twins, they would steal one of the new borns, never telling the mother that she had twins. She would then sell the baby to families who had no prospects of having any of their own.

Horrible right? Sorry about that but you need to know that.

My theory is that this happened to my grand mother and she lost one of her twin girls. The reason for my theory is that my grand mother had twin sons. Now two of my other uncles who were not twins ended up with twins as well. So I have a reason to believe that my theory is strong.

Do you know how I can get in touch with this lady? maybe her picture on the papers or internet. Of course I don't want to be sued. Are there services that unite people when there is so little information about them?
by the way, my grandma is dead so is most of her family.

It is an interesting story. I don't know much about this sort of thing but it seems to me that the best Y!A category for this question would be Genealogy, which is a sub category of Arts & Humanities. I think that people there would have a better idea of how to start a search like this than most of us are going to. Good luck to you.

That sounds like it would be an interesting investigative story. I would first of all find out where the lady got off on her flight and call that locality news center and ask if they could post her pic or something on the news. Maybe they can help point you in the right direction.



Good luck! I'd be interested to see how it turns out.

nicely if she grew to become into abused with the help of your adult adult males' father than she is probable nevertheless laid low with that abuse. that type of element does not in simple terms pass away with the help of itself. yet... she additionally sounds very imaginitive and inventive. i does no longer be alarmed because of the fact she grew to become into portray bleeding roses, it somewhat is in simple terms creativity and being an artist. perchance you mustn't seize at her paintings collectively as she is portray it. it somewhat is amazingly impolite. She grew to become into probable so deep in concept and centred on portray she did no longer choose to respond. I additionally think of you mustn't be analyzing her very own diary. those are her techniques in basic terms for herself, they are inner maximum and you mustn't be snooping with the aid of them. No ask your self she is so distraught, she has no privateness in any respect. it is good to be waiting to get all our feeling out on paper, it helps in techniques you do no longer understand and it is an prompt violation for you to examine her very own techniques. in simple terms because of the fact she wrote approximately suicide, does not advise she is going to devote suicide. it is a metaphor. She has pals that are animals, so what? I also have a lot of pals that are animals. i think of you're judging her too harshly. I do think of she ought to confirm a counseler in regards to the abuse although. it somewhat is certainly some deep rooted heavy stuff to handle. pondering she grew to become into abused so undesirable, i think of she's easily doing enormously good. portray some pictures and writing in her diary are hassle-free techniques to handle it. perchance you should decrease back up and supply her some area. Be there for her while she desires it yet you do no longer ought to examine each and every thing little element she thinks and does.
