Hi, Robin,
First I would like to say how sorry I am that you lost your adoptive Mum so early in your life.
It must have been a blow for you and now many years later frustrating to know that the background info on your Birth parents is now hard to come by from the problems with Barnardos. I did call Barnardos in England and told them that I already had all the information on my birth parents plus letters they comunicated with my adoptive parents . They told me that they have all the files on film including those from hong kong and all I had to do was write a letter requesting the info. (I made sure that I told them that I had been to International Social Services and they have already given me my ifo they had received.) The only information I cant have from either agencies is third party information.
Im sure you have done just what I have done, but I wanted to see what the response is so maybe I can try to find a way to help you in your quest. If they give me the info then I can tell you why and if they dont they have to tell me why . I think if I try then
we should be able to gather some insight that can help you enforce your claim to get your records.
Maybe you think this is a crazy and stupid idea of mine but it makes me so angry when I hear your story.
Iwill let you know what happens
