A New York woman has reunited with a hospital staffer who found her after she was abandoned as a baby.
Beadle and the team at Richmond's pediatrics clinic cared for baby Vicky until she was adopted by Angela and Dennis Laffin, who are also parents to a biological son and an adopted son named Frank."They didn't know that they were abandoned up until a couple of months ago. Because we never used the words 'abandoned,' 'left behind' ... it's just not in our vocabulary," Angela Laffin said.
Vicky Laffin recently learned cardiac technician Claudia Beadle found and helped her after she was abandoned at a New York hospital 19 years ago.The siblings had recently decided to each take DNA tests in the hopes of learning more about their personal histories. But what they discovered was nothing short of a miracle.Vicky and Frank Laffin, who were both adopted into the same family, also recently learned they are biological siblings.
"We were both found a year and a half apart and wound up in the same family. The odds are insane," Frank Laffin said. The Laffins have since reunited with the women who discovered and cared for both Vicky and Frank as babies years ago. "Walking in here, it was definitely emotional, it definitely felt a little overwhelming but it was really nice to see the place where I was left and see that Claudia was so great and took such good care of me," Vicky Laffin said.
