Mom is Reunited With Her Daughter After 49 Years of Being Told That She Died at Birth

Credit :

Just imagine being told on one of the biggest days of your life, the day your child is born, that he or she was unable to survive -- only to discover that your baby is somewhere out there in the world. This is exactly what happened to this woman from Missouri.

This 76-year-old woman from Olivette, Missouri spent over half of her life believing that her baby girl had died the day she was born. Zella Jackson Price was in shock when she found out that she had been living a lie this whole time. It's heart-wrenching to finally find out that the girl you gave birth to was actually alive this whole time.

The girl is alive and well and finally reunited with her long-lost mother. Price's daughter, Melanie, has wanted to find her biological mother for a very long time and was absolutely in shock when her dream came true. She also meets her long lost brother!

Melanie is thankful to God for the second chance to finally meet the person she has been missing from for a very long time. Although she is deaf, she can express her reaction by using sign language. God is GREAT!

Check out this amazing reunion of two people who had been separated for many years:
