Episode 4

This episode features two women searching for siblings - the first has been hoping to find her brother ever since learning of the enormous burden of grief her mother carried after giving him up. 

Tracey Boyle had children of her own before she learned of her brother's existence - after a stay in hospital following a breakdown, her mother finally confided in Tracey the enormous weight of grief she carried ever since her first-born son was prised from her hands at the age of 16 and placed for adoption. Tracey is determined to find him and let him know he was wanted.

In our second story, a woman who had a strange sense she had a sister out there during her own adoption finally gets confirmation of her intuition. Liz Allward was adopted as a baby, but she always had an uncanny feeling that she had a biological sister somewhere out there and has longed to meet her from the moment she found out she was right.
