Female born 10/6/83 in New York -ISO Birthparents-

I am conducting a search on behalf of my good friend... she knows almost nothing about her adoption, and is too afraid to bring up the subject with her adoptive father. She isn't even certain of where she was born, but she believes it was Syracuse, New York. If this is of any help, she has dark brown hair and green eyes. She was also born with a cleft pallate. Any info would be amazing!
Thanks,
-Molly

I am a b-mom in search of a daughter I had given up for adoption that same year, also born with cleft palet.
But, her b-day was 3/26/83.
I am in NY, but on Long Island...
If this is of any help please respond..
Thanks Sue
