For 25 years, a mother desperately searched for her son, holding onto nothing but a photo of him as a one-year-old. She had lost all hope of ever seeing him again. After years of feeling lost and devastated, she decided to reach out to her ex-mother-in-law for any clue.
To her shock, she learned that her ex-husband had taken their son and fled to the United States. The case, originally in Mexico, was eventually pursued in the U.S., where her son Steven was located. After being told by his father that his mother had passed away, Steven was deeply moved to learn the truth.
“I didn’t know my mother was alive,” he said, deeply regretful of what his father had done. Their reunion, after so many years, was an emotional one, with both mother and son healing from the pain of their separation.
