Comment from Joyce Long
Very well written and very interesting. People seem to want to know their families from the past. Our grandson was able to connect with family members of his father in later years. His father and mother are both deceased, but he does have an aunt and uncle from his father's side that means so much to him. Very well done.

Comment from Writerbythesea
I readily connected with your piece when you talked about having been adopted. I was not but was raised as a ward of the state. I am most interested in what happens when you pick up that phone as you continue your quest in search of your father. Some of your sentences seem choppy and could benefit from being connected to others which follow. Analyze that. Also, do some editing, i.e., verb-subject agreement (George and Mum leaves). Check your verb tenses throughout. I will be making a similar search to yours and found your piece an interesting one as a biographical reflection. Thank you for sharing it.

Thank you Ulla for continuing your story. Congratulations as well on finding your husband. It sounds like the two of you are a good fit. Tall dark and handsome? I'm curious now to hear the rest of the story. All the best. Reed.

This is an exciting chapter. It seems that you met a great man and you found your father too. I'm looking forward to reading the next chapter. Luckily, he was still alive.

Comment from Dawn Munro
This is a brilliant way to conclude this chapter - talk about a cliff hanger, Ulla - good stuff! Now you have a new love AND a good chance of meeting your other parent - wow. That must have been such an exciting time in your life!

Dawn, it was an exciting time in my life. I honestly couldn't believe what was happening to me. On the other hand, if you don't reach out, you don't get. I am very happily married to Alan that I met that day. I am a fortunate girl indeed. All best. Ulla:)))

That's wonderful, Ulla - good for you!
