Tom and Jennifer Doering from Wisconsin, USA, wanted to give their adopted daughter Audrey a nice gift, but changed her life. The couple adopted a ten-year-old girl from China, but little was known about her biological parents. To fill this gap, the couple turned to specialists and hoped that they would help restore the schoolgirl’s family tree. The couple wanted to show the result of the work done to their daughter so that she would have an idea of her roots. And by this act, the Doering family, without knowing it, made significant adjustments to the fate of the child.
The results of the study of Audrey’s family tree came to Jennifer’s email. The woman was eager to see the result of the work done, so she did not shelve the matter but hurried to open the letter. However, after a couple of moments, Mrs. Doering froze in surprise. It turned out that her adopted daughter has a twin sister, whose presence no one even suspected.
Mrs. Doering found out that her adopted daughter had a twin sister, whose presence no one even suspected.
I combined all the emotions into one. Excitement, fear, confusion. When you look at a picture of your daughter and can’t figure out which one is yours.
Naturally, the woman immediately wanted to know about the fate of the Audrey twins. After some time, she managed to find out that the girl’s name is Gracie, and she also lives in the USA. Jennifer was able to contact her adoptive parents and told them the full story of this incredible story. Both families came to the conclusion that the girls simply needed to meet each other, despite the maelstrom of emotions and events.
The next day, the twins were able to look at each other and chat a little, however, via video link. And, according to Audrey, she was shocked by what was happening and could hardly contain her emotions.
I don’t think I said anything important, I just cried. It was very emotional.
The sister could be anywhere in the world. They could speak different languages, and her adoptive parents might refuse to communicate with us at all.
Gracie’s foster mom, named Nicole, was surprised when she received a message from Mrs. Doering. The woman even took time to think, because she did not know what to do with this information that fell on her like snow on her head.
The sisters are having a great time together after so many years apart.
We thought about whether we should tell Gracie about this or wait until she is older. But then they realized that she deserved the truth.
A month after the video call, the sisters were able to see each other in person. Of course, for the girls it was one of the most important moments in their lives, but they managed to cope with their emotions and had a great time.
We were surprised how similar they are. They even have the same favorite food.
But despite many similarities, there are differences between the sisters. According to Audrey, she likes to wear girly clothes, but Gracie prefers sports style. And the twins have different views on the future. So, a girl from the Doering family wants to connect her profession with medicine, and her sister dreams of becoming a teacher. By the way, now they see each other several times a year, but every day they keep in touch on social networks and always look forward to the next meeting.
