Chris' biological father (he has an adoptive father {Joe} that he calls dad) has not seen Mandie since the day she was born, and Mandie knew of other family but was told that they never wanted to meet her. It was a through a good search by my SIL that Mandie was even found, and was told the truth a few months ago. She is a genuine person, I would love to get to know her more.
