Omg, I grew up with Heidi. I lived next door to her. My mother still lives there and Heidi lives 3 houses down now. Im so happy Heidi, that you were able to reunite with your daughter.

The daughter is SOBemotionally mature. She wasn’t resentful at all and it honestly seemed like she was doing this less because she needed it and more because she knew her bio-mom REALLY needed it, and I think that’s really sweet of her.
“I don’t really remember my parents sitting me down and telling me I’m adopted I grew up always kinda knowing” Best way to handle adoption with a child.

I am adopted and personally could not disagree with you more. I was told I was adopted at a young age (old enough to understand what it meant) and it made me feel special and not the outcast or to feel like "I just know I'm adopted because I am different or am treated differently or just don't feel the connection" This is so incredibly insensitive to presume this is the best way for every adopted child.

Very well mannered!
Started crying the minute they hugged. I know exactly how that mother feels. I gave a son up at age 16 . I was raped but my mother said she didn’t want a bastard child n our home. My stepdad did. That was n 1969 & I am 68 today. He’s 51 now. Never have saw him. I’ll go to my grave without him knowing how & why. I’m so happy for all 3 of them. The kids were thrilled. Many happy years for them. The daughter looks like her & so does her grandchildren. Beautiful.

Please tell me it's not what I think it is.
We adopted my little sister but we also told her that she's adopted and she knows who her parents are the only thing I can say is it was a blessing I love her so much
As an adopted kid who’s found her parents I’m happy for these people. My meeting was nothing like this. No one cried while hugging me. It was super awkward at first. I also look nothing like her. Or the guy she named as my father. He wasn’t. She lied so much about this that I had to go through AncestryDNA and 23andMe to find him. He’s incredible. We were supposed to meet but covid derailed the trip for now. My bio mother is furious with me over wanting to know who he was. That’s on her.
It’s so sad what young parents had to do back in the day. They gave up a piece of there heart & soul and to be able to fill that empty horrible feeling of loss. This made my heart so happy I cried all the way
Great, now I’m crying 🙄 this is sweet

As an adoptive mother, this story was beautiful to see. I am so happy for them all❤️
"I will definitely incorporate her into our life moving forward". This is so ironic in a good way. In the end she kind of ended up adopting her in a sense.
Omg the mother made me cry! She was so genuine and the hurt was all over her face...really the love was all over her face!!

Yes you could tell she had a sweet spirit and kind heart. I cried when she said she didn’t have children and a husband. I feel it was because of the heartbreak of her daughter and Greg the father ❤️
My mom gave my sister up in 1994. it still hurts her because she didnt have a choice. weve been trying to find her since 2015, still no luck, but hopefully soon she can meet her
The kind of birth mother all adopted children want ❤️

They are so similar. Big respect to her parents for raising her with a healthy view of adoption. She is one of the few who seems to really be at peace. My parents also raised me with a healthy view of adoption but peace is fleeting. It comes and goes. I think that it has alot to do with noticing similarities between my son and myself and wondering where it came from.
This is just beautiful. A young mom that truly did not have a choice because of her own parents had to give up the one thing she carried for 9months and searched for her every day after knowing her heart belonged with her precious beautiful babygirl. This is amazing and remarkable to reunite this precious family.
Even her grandchildren immediately took to her wow ❤️
She must have felt so empty all those years. I couldn’t imagine what it would have been like being told to give your baby up. Bless her heart. I’m so glad they found each other.

I wasn't worth a hill of beans after she finally embraced her daughter. The raw emotions and sincerity of it all.💕
that "I've never forgotten about you" hit me like a fuckin freight train.
Love when the universe comes together like this. Cherish your family everyone
Each one of them seem so kind.... wonderful to see them united.
My sister had her first of 2 daughters in 1977 when she was 16 1/2. She wanted to keep Melissa but my mother didn't want her to. My dad asked what my sister wanted and that he would support her in that decision. The bio dad was a good man and stepped up to be the father of his daughter. Unfortunately he died in a car accident less than a year later on his way home from his second job. I was only 11 when my niece was born but I did what ever I could to help my sister. Melissa become more of a little sister than my niece. I'm 55 now and Melissa is 44 and to this day she calls me Darren no Uncle Darren.
I am crying like a baby-- such authentic emotions
This just warms heart! And the grandkids were so excited to meet her. Definitely an amazing experience for all!

I am a battled harden vet fought in two different wars . Very senior now this story had me in tears . I truly hope they a good relationship. May the good lord lay his hand on both their shoulders.
Hope all the parents can have a great relationship. Can't imagine how scary it is for the adoptive parents too.
I couldn’t stop crying ♥️🥺☹️ what a beautiful family!
I was adopted myself when I was 2months old. Never met any biological family but always want to. Love this show.

Very compassionate and empathetic women.
Her daughter is gorgious same age as me im in 💘such happy story i literally balled my eyes out
A mother's love is inherited ,The people who talked these young ladies into giving up there children ,Love is stronger than any thing they had to say ,
The go-between has a heart for this calling. The mother reunited with her daughter and the daughter of the daughter reunited with her mother share a resemblance that is hard to miss, bless them all
Some kids are taken away from their birth parents because of circumstances that are out of their control and its absolutely sad but being able to meet your birth parents is a great opportunity to get to know them
That was So beautiful.........love it.........always stay that happy
This is beautiful, You both look so much alike. I hope you do have a great relationship for many years to come.

4:13 the bear! 😳 It has a rattle in it's tummy- I got my oldest daughter that exact bear before her birth in 1984, and she loved it so much it fell apart and I had to hunt a replacement used one up when she was 5 and in hospital. I just lost it when she said it was from her birth mama 😿😞
Very emotional moments and was good to hear that they will have an ongoing relationship. I found and met my mother when I was 28 years old, wasn't adopted but lived with my father. They separated when I was 3 years old. Unfortunately my mother died suddenly about a year or so after I met her.

What a beautiful family, all of them!
Wonderful segment. Very happy for the mother, daughter and grandchildren. Really made my day. Happy new year.
This hurts my throat 🙈❤ God bless us all. Thanks for sharing
Absolutely beautiful! Now I'M crying. People TRULY have no idea how much LOVE it takes for one to be unselfish, and let go, so that they can give their child a better life... it is the hardest thing you could ever imagine going through, and the most unselfish and loving act to do so, especially as a youth! God bless this birth mother for her loving and unselfish act which she did regardless of her own feelings! God bless this whole family. May many years of happiness be before all of them!
Yes she is gorgeous 🥰
Wow She is a woman with a beautiful selfless soul.
she's beautiful and well organised. I love her
At least, there is something positive with the world that I have to keep striving. Love is the ANSWER. thanks to the daughter for understanding the situation and accepted mum. 🥰
This is beyond beautiful. I never cry, but I’m crying now
Definitely a bitter sweet moment ❤

Oh, how this story pulls on the heart strings 🥺 my sister also fell pregnant at a young age. Our parents were incredible. They invited my sister to move back home and never even entertained the thought of the child being giving up for adoption. Instead, she was welcomed as the loved family member she was. Then my mum cared for her when my sister was ready to go back to work. I can't imagine how a young woman would cope with being forced to give up their baby 💔
Wow beautiful daughter ❤️
I love her reaction to meeting her grandkids
