This story starts at a doorstep back in 1991 in the country of Romania. Baby Hannah was left hours after birth, umbilical cord still attached to her tiny body. When Hannah was discovered, she was still bleeding, but alive⏤as the homeowners called the authorities with the news.
Alone, lost with an uncertain future… Hannah would say, “the despair and loneliness would surface throughout my middle school years when I began to understand my adoption and experience the trials and triumphs of growing up.”
The orphanages in Romania were overloaded with babies. What are the chances that an American couple would find their way to Romania in search for a daughter to love? The story of Hannah from that doorstep to a new life in America might only happen in fairytales⏤consider this a real life fairytale.
The story continues on the Brink of Greatness Podcast…
