In a story straight out of a fairytale, journalist Tamuna Museridze reunited with her biological parents after 40 years of separation.
For most of her life, Tamuna had no idea she wasn’t living with her real parents.
She found out that she was adopted in 2016 when the woman who raised her passed away.
The Woman is A Journalist
While sorting through belongings, she discovered a birth certificate with her name but the wrong birth date.
Determined to uncover the truth, she created a Facebook group called Vedzeb (I’m Searching).
It was there she learned about Georgia’s dark history of baby trafficking. Despite reuniting many families, she couldn’t find her own.
Tamuna Finally Meets Her Father
A stranger suggested Tamuna might be the daughter of a woman who gave birth in September 1984.
Tamuna was stunned to find her father already on her Facebook friends list.
Soon they managed to arrange a meetup with her 72-year-old Gurgen Khorava at his residence a few hundred miles away.
