Lucinda had a really productive time in Hong Kong to set the foundations for the fall reunion. She set out (Feb 24 to 3rd April, 2010) to connect with the local HK adoptees and the adoption community (local partners) in hope to establish a local HK organising committee. It will still be a challenge reaching adult HK adoptees and orphans, as organisations (understandably) are bound by the Data Protection Act.
Lucinda – thanks for giving me my first connection to CRC – I was so happy that you sent me your message. We are the same age and must have seen each other as babies. Keep up the great work here and I would love to help you in any way I can. I live in Canada but the internet sure made the world smaller. Thanks again for giving me a part of my life back. I have not met my biological mother even though I have the info. something holds me back from wanting to meet her – I guess it is the fear of rejection all over again. Have an excellent day.
