It had been 40 years since Salomé Tadford last saw her son when he was a tiny baby. However, after being taken away from her, a decades-long search would ensue, and it’s a beautiful thing Salomé never gave up:
In 1981, Salomé Tadford’s son was reportedly taken from her. She had fallen pregnant as a young 13-year-old, the result of sexual abuse.the taking of her son to have been illicit. People unknown to her had claimed to be working for welfare services and took the baby away. She wouldn’t see her child, Frits Brandon, for the next 40 years., Tadford carried a picture of her baby with her wherever she went for years to come, striving fiercely to be reunited with him one day.
I do not believe he was given out for adoption legally. This is based on the devious conduct of my known to me mother in many other instances,” Tadford explained. On 5 July, “the day started like any other in South Africa” Tadford described, adding that loadshedding was looming – definitely any other day in South Africa. She was boiling the kettle when she received a message from an unknown number at 4:53am.
