Paula Beer was 17 years old when she had her son. She was so terrified of her strict parents' reaction that she didn't tell them. It was only when she went to visit her aunt in Essex that the truth was revealed. Paula loved her son but had to make the heart-breaking decision to give him up for adoption. 57 years later, she still tearfully remembers the day she told him ‘to remember my voice, I will always love you'.
Sharon Thomas only learned that she had a younger brother when she was in her twenties. It was a family secret, even from her, that her teenage mother Margaret had a second child out of wedlock. Her parents said they couldn't support another child and Margaret made the devastating decision to give him up for adoption. Margaret died just 10 months later from leukemia. Sharon is desperate to find her brother, for her and for her late mother.
