Vietnam Babylift Personal Stories
City: Tampa
State: Florida
Comments: In May of 1975 an American family adopted me from Denver. I was from the Ghenh Rang orphanage. I was seven when I was adopted; now I'm 40. I was unaware of the reunion that was going in 2005, although I wish I had known. My husband was in the military so we traveled a lot; in the end we retired here in Florida. Life has been good to me, but I am writting this to see if anyone knows anything about my two older brothers whom I don't have names for. I know that doesn't help one bit, but if anyone also knows who Sister Emilienne and has her infomation I would appreciate it. I haven't been back to Vietnam at all, but I'm planning to go back this Christmas with my three kids and husband to find Qui Nhon. Hopefully I'll be able to find some answers to my questions. I know both of my biological parents are deceased. I'm just seaching for my two brothers. Oh, also, my Vietnamese name was Nyuyen yhi Hao. My middle brother was in the orphanage with me, and my oldest brother would come and visit us on the weekend, but when the war started in on us, there was no way to locate or find my older brother at the age of seven. I remember just trying to get all the babies loaded up on the bus not knowing where we were going. Although I was I remember alot of my younger life in Vietnam.
Also, I've been reading this site and I'm so thankful and want to thank you, Lana, and Charlie for all your time you've put into this. Thanks from the bottom of my heart.
Hao
