WWII orphan in England w/AC & BC & when Peace broke out was adopted into the family I was evacuated to '45. Mother of my childhood would not speak of where I came from other than to mutter dire comments which only now, in my 77th year, I'm understanding as I've been FOUND by a young nephew the son of the older brother I never knew I had & who knew of me & kept on searching even on his deathbed. Nephew & Me are enjoying each other's company via emails cuz there's no cell service where I live. I finally have a photo of the Mother who gave me life & her mother who brought her 3 children by train from Berehove Ukraine to England '38. Another child Hitler didn't get, yeah! Praise Be ;-D Oh, yeah, I'd read Betty Lean's Journey of the Adopted Self & had many affirmations & lessons of my experience & wrote a review on Amazon & the book review site I founded which is now defunct. Betty Jean wrote to thank me & I just found her email & wanted to let her know my gladsome news ;-D
