So many questions needed answers and finally she had the opportunity to have them answered. She finally got to meet her mom, a funny witty lady who loves to tell stories about her life when she was growing up.
“At first, I was afraid to share my personal story of finding my mom, with all the ups and downs of life. But later on, I decided to take that risk. I was only planning to share the good, the positive, the stuff that I was comfortable with,” says Grace. “However, when people heard my story of how I found my mother after five decades, many of them told me they felt inspired. They wanted to know how I found her, where I found her, what condition I found her in and the details of what happened after I found her. Realizing others found my story to be intriguing, I am sharing all of it.”
