i have been watching vids of people being reunited with long lost loved ones via these DNA test. i wonder how well they work to find someone.
my wife has a aunt that lived in Vietnam till the mids 70's . apparently in the mid 60's she had a relationship with an american military officer and had a child. she thought they were to get married, but unknown to her he was already married in the states. when confronted he told he that him and his wife had planned this to have a child as she could not have children. Then he disappeared with the child and she has never heard from them since.
these were times before the internet etc where finding people is less difficult these days just imagine a woman trying to get info out of the us military about a soldier back then. almost if not impposible
So fast forward she is mid seventies now. she has had a good life in America. still works for a large airplane maker. i was gonna ask my wife to speak to her about taking a DNA test and running it in their databases and seeing if there are any hits. the child would be about 50 or so now.
So should i bring this subject up, or MMOB? She has always been nice to me and i think it would be such a sad situation for her to pass and not see her son. she already has 2 sons from someone she married when she came to America .
So what do you think?
