‘I wrote her a letter in which I told her that I forgive her... She gave me up out of love for me, but I knew it would mean a lot to her and hopefully give her some peace,' shares Katherine.
Katherine Samwell-Smith, 45, was adopted at six months old and longed to know who her birth mother was.Katherine was handed into an orphanage in Chile then went to her adoptive parents in 1977, moving 7,000 miles away to the UK.Knowing only her mother’s name, in 2019 Katherine – who is a project worker for the charity IAC The Centre for Adoption – joined a Facebook group that reconnects adoptees from Chile with their birth families.
The group compiled a list of women in Chile who had the same name as Katherine’s birth mother and, one by one, they were all contacted, until Ximena was found. ‘I remember being very proud of the fact that I was adopted and, at around five years old, I told everyone at school.’‘But, when I was around 17, I started wanting to know more about the place I was from so my mum and I went on a trip to Chile.
