We adopted from Romania in 1991. Does anyone know of anyone in Romania or going that can help us search for birthparents in the Calarasi region? They were found about 4 years ago, we got photos, names and a letter. Unfortunately they were lost in a computer crash. Any suggestions?

No promises but I do have rewlatives living in Bucharest and my husband is fluent in Romanian. We could at least call our relatives and ask how much they are willing to do. Feel free to email me at satchmoionescu@yahoo.com

I do have a friend living in Romania. I just asked her the same question.
Her husband is an attorney there and highly advised against trying to find to contact the birthparents at this particular time.

Because of all of the corruption within the adoption system in Romania, and the selling of children and the ban on foreign adoptions. I was advised that I could possibly be opening up a very bad can of worms if I were to find them NOW.

He was afraid that b/c of all of the bad publicity right now, that I could potentially find myself in a position where the bio parents would claim that they had been forced to sell their child and be in a huge pickle.

He thinks it would be wise to wait some of this out and then VERY carefully consider what I might do down the road. Dealing with foreign governments and countries can be tricky at times.

Good luck in what ever you decide to do.
