Hello Sarah,

I am not so sure how to approach this, but I believe that i am your sister. I am the 13 year old girl you spoke of born to Mary Jean Lang (nee Wallace). I was born on the 23rd September 1964 at Box Hill in Victoria and my name is Debbie and you were right, I did know that my mother was pregnant. I suspected this twice, but I understand now that it was 3 times. To my knowledge you are the last child born to our mother. We do not share a father, but I know yours. He is my step father and has been since forever.

If you are anything like me, about now you will be balling your eyes out. I know I am. I would desperately love to hear from you if you think you are able to talk, me, I will probably just cry all the way through it, but they will be tears of joy.

I understand how you feel about wanting to know family. My mother removed us from my dad and all connection to him when I was about 4 and it took 21 years for me to track him and his two new families down. Some of those too are related to you as they are your fathers nieces and nephews. Long story, I can explain when we chat.

I don't know where you live, but I am in South Australia. There is a half hour time difference between here and Sydney (if that is where you still reside). I know on birth certificates that there should be info about other siblings born but I am not sure if that includes names or not. If it does you will be able to tell that what I am telling you is true.

If you want to contact me, I have added your address to MSN messenger so we can see each other and chat online, so accept the email and add me to your MSN Messenger contacts. Otherwise my phone number is 08 8382 4605 (Private) and I am up most nights till fairly late. So go ahead and just ring. (not after midnight though please).

I am so waiting to hear from you. So much we can tell each other.

TC

Love

Deb.
