Being perfectly happy with the loving family she had, Feldman never took an interest in finding her biological parents until diagnosed with a disease that she passed on to her son. Suddenly, Nancy's lack of family history was affecting someone else.
Writing to the Nebraska Children's Home Society for help, the adoption agency assigned Nancy's case to Rebecca Crofoot. This began a 17-year journey between the two women who were determined to find information about a family that might not know, or want to know, Nancy existed.
Family Medical History: Unknown/Adopted is a heart-warming story of personal, medical, genealogical and emotional discovery.
