Here's the e-mail I got yesterday:
"Wendy-
I just received the ID for your mother....Our mail here is really slow.
I will be completing the non-identifying information as soon as possible. There are a couple of cases ahead of yours. I know that you are anxious and can promise you that the information will be completed no later than 04/18/2008.
If you have any questions you can either call or email.
Thanks-
Angelica Petitt"
Eeeeeeeeeee!!!! I am so excited!!!!

Looking for my brother, born Christopher Lee Schell on 7/20/72 in Los Angeles County, California.
Update: 3/14/08 Happy Birthday to me, got a letter from LA Cty Adoptions re: non-id! Hopefully by the end of the week I'll have it! 
Update: 5/5/08 Found out A-dad was an attorney born in 1937. They applied to LA County adoptions in May 1970 for a second adoption which resulted (a couple years later) in getting my brother. Where do I look now??
Update: 5/19/08 I have his adopted name! I even have addresses and phone numbers, some of which MAY or may not be current, but when I contacted the A-dad he said he "doesn't remember adopting any children in 1972..." but grilled me about who I was, who our mother was, my brother's name, and then repeated his convenient memory loss and wished me good day. So close... and yet SO far...
