A woman from Seville finds her Ukrainian foster ‘sister’ through Twitter

A beautiful story in difficult times. A woman from Seville has found his sister Ukrainian host. And all thanks to red social Twitter, where he published an ad asking Internet users to help him find Anna, the only information he had, apart from her presumable residence in Ukraine, from where he traveled home one summer, when they were children, without ever being able to return to know about her, despite her continuous attempts. Now, Twitter has done its magic and the two women are already in contact, according to what the Sevillian has published on the aforementioned social network.

The story of this reunion begins when the user identified in the social network as Adriana made the appeal in the early hours of the past February 25. She wrote a long thread next to a photo of the two of them on the beach that began: “When I was 12 years old, we decided to take in a Ukrainian girl, Anna, for a summer. It was an unforgettable experience in which I felt like I had another sister. When The season ended, he had to go back to the orphanage but the affection we had taken for him was such that we requested”. Next, the Sevillian summarizes in seven other messages what Anna’s stay at home meant for her family.



Due to your personal circumstance, she was an orphan, details the letter, Adriana’s family decided to adopt her the whole year, but it was not possible. “She was an orphan, so her custody was held by a distant aunt. Initially, the proposal was that she stay with us during the school year and come back with her in the summer. They denied us since her aunt did not allow it and she She flatly refused to allow her to return to Spain for another year, not even in the summer. We spent years and years sending her boxes full of toys and letters to her shelter, her aunt only took her home in the summer. We never knew if they arrived,” the thread continues.

It indicated to Internet users the fight relentlessly for hearing about her again, “we’ve been looking for her on social networks for years and comparing photos to see if any of the ones we see could be her,” she says.

The outbreak of the war in the Ukraine a month ago shook everything up again in this Sevillian family and their desperation to find out again what is Anna’s. “I don’t know if she has already forgotten about me, if she has rebuilt her life or if she is fine but… we will not get tired of looking for her and less now in the war situation in which Ukraine is currently. We have written to the Spanish embassy to send her all the data we have (…) Seeing the catastrophe that is taking place there on the news makes me feel the worst and I just want her to know that here she will always have a home to shelter in and a family that loves her “.

Since then, the tweet has been shared more than 20,000 times. And, although they have taken a long time, they received the answer they expected: “WE HAVE FOUND HER and we are already talking to her. Thank you for everything! We are very happy,” Adriana wrote again in her profile last March, 15th.

A happy ending that only the internet and its universality has made possible.
