Vera and Nikolay thought it is better to leave Moldova. They left that place and shifted to North Carolina and then Ohio. However, every time they would visit the place again, they would try to locate the other family and see if anything of the past could be resolved or connected. But nothing like that happened until…

Let’s Try

Back in the ’90s, it wasn’t that easy to locate people as it is today. While the couple left their investigation long back, in the year 2017 with the advent of technology they decided to give it another try. The remembered that their neighboring woman gave them the name of the baby as “Valentina Suman”.

Searching

In August 2017, they searched the name Valentina Suman over Facebook and found a match. There was this girl in her thirties who was a resident of Moldova. She had dark colored hair and eyes similar to that of Nikolay. They messaged her and told her the entire case. They even asked her for her birth details.

A Match

When Valentina provided them with the details about her birth date and place and the hospital she was born in, Vera and Nikolay were amazed. It was exactly the same date, time and place when Tatyana was born. She even forwarded some of her pictures when she was an infant and it made the picture a lot clearer.

It’s Her Mom

Anatoily, Vera and Nikolay’s son saw those pictures and said that she resembled a lot like that of his parents. He was shocked to make this discovery. The resemblance was something none could ignore. With this, the family decided to get a DNA test done.

The Results

In October 2017, the family via a Russian Television show got their DNA tests conducted. As the results came, it was crystal clear. The doubt they had in mind in regard to Tatyana and Valentina turned true. Valentina’s DNA   was a 99.99% match to Vera and Nikolay’s. Valentina was their daughter.

The Reunion

When Valentina met Vera backstage, she couldn’t control her tears. It was an emotional reunion. They were meeting for the first time in the span of nearly 40 years. This somehow made concrete why the two babies would be cranky all their childhood. The newborns could sense that their respective mothers weren’t their biological mothers.
