Twins Separated at Birth

My name is John. My twin’s name is James. We were separated at birth, so I have no conscious memory of him. I am now 37 years old.

I dreamed about my twin and had all sorts of unexplained feelings, out-of-the-blue pains or experiences over the years until I found my older twin sisters from my birth family.

I went through several foster homes as a child, and bounced around as a teenager in survival mode most of time.

Ten years ago my son was born. I made a commitment to find my origins so that my son could possibly be reconnected to family. It took several private investigators, lots of money and about 10 years to put all of the pieces together.

I found out that my father was already dead, just 40 days before I found him. However, my birth mother told me my brother’s name and the story about the beginning. She does not know what happened to him, nor do my older twin sisters. I pray every day that we can be together again.

I miss my brother James and worst part is that I don’t have closure. My older twin sisters have been my angels. Even though I have not found my brother James, I have been blessed with their acceptance of me into their lives. Thank you Pearlyne and Paula. I love you.
