514. Lizeswart22 : I know her name is sanet and she had two sons prior, juan and martello. I was born in theMoedersbond Maternity Hospital
Pretoria, Gauteng.
515. ColleenElizabeFouche : Jacques ..
a whole family of 3 generations ..
-granny (now 88yrs) never spoke about you .. now in Apr 2021 said she has 2 letters from your mama .. kept them.
you are in my thoughts quite often as your brother Francois successfully moves up the career ladder .. and I am so imagining your successful climb as well ..
Francois has a birthday the day after yours (born 1985) - yes, God is good, hey? And your other brother Charl, was born 16 March 1988 (he suffers from Down’s syndrome). Marisha (your sister) was born 20 Feb. 1990
.. and wait for this - Marisha’s son born 8March 2016! Yes, you are slapbang inbetween ..
I eventually did not marry your dad .. which I suppose you know by now. He apparently could not handle it /forgive me for having you go to another mommy and daddy. The laws were different then. But looking back, i think i would still do the same .. i believe with all my heart that you were an answer to your mommy and daddy’s prayers - my brother and his wife could never have children and my sister struggled to conceive, she has one son (and he was also out of wedlock - i went up against my mom like a tigress .. there was no ways .. turns out he would be her only child. I am always thankful that i do follow my gut as i believe it is God that churns that!!).
God has blessed me so much. I just needed to let you know this.
and ja, your sister aint married (I fought against the whole family when she fell pregnant .. both times) and is still staying in the house together with her two kiddies (Munay & Daniel), but she would love having another brother.
This house is loud and upside down, emotional and definitely never boring.
I am working at the moment [i am an audio / dictaphone typist and have a small company Type and Dicta 24 - type disciplinary hearings] .. deadline in the morning .. but needed to quickly pin a message ...

expecting you to knock on the door any day!!! I know i will not be disappointed

I was matched with my birth mother just minutes after setting up my profile. It turns out that she had been searching for me for years. It's been a joy to connect with her and the rest of my biological family.
