An adopted woman met her two sisters for the first time in 44 years—after hiring a private detective to track down her birth family.
Magda Berg hired the detective after her own 20-year search hit a dead end. She paid $1,300 and had the names and addresses of her family members four months later.
The 44-year old and mother-of-one was able to meet her birth mother and discovered she had three half siblings, including two sisters. Now she feels a “real sense of family”.
“My sisters and I connected straight away, it was amazing,” said the receptionist from Buckinghamshire, England, who now has regular contact with Beata and Daria, both in their early 40s. “I am very, very happy.
“We have a lot in common. We all talk about life in the same way, like we were raised together, and we’re able to finish each others’ sentences.
“I now have that real sense of family that I had been missing.
Magda grew up in Poland and was told that she was adopted as a baby. She moved to the UK in 2005 but all she knew about her birth mom was her name, the village where she gave birth, and the location of the convent where she had been left.

She started to feel curious about her birth family at age 18 after her adoptive parents were killed in a car crash. However, the convent where she’d been left as an infant had closed and she couldn’t find out any more information about her origins.
A change in Polish law meant she could request her original birth certificate in January 2018, so she was able to discover her birth mother’s maiden name and the town she had lived in.

After struggling to get any further, Magda decided to hire a private detective who discovered the name and address for her mum and revealed she had three half siblings: two sisters and a brother.
The detective sent two letters of introduction to her birth mother on Magda’s behalf but got no answer. Then, Magda’s half sister Beata found one of the letters and contacted the detective and arranged to meet Magda.
They met up in a restaurant when Magda was on holiday in Warsaw just after Christmas.
“It was like meeting my other half,” Magda told SWNS news agency. “We talked like we’d known each other our whole lives.”
A year later Magda’s mother finally agreed to meet her in a café, and revealed that she was 20-years-old and unmarried when she became pregnant with Magda. She later married a different man, with whom she had the other three children.

Magda now also has a young niece who calls her ‘my auntie in the UK’.

The three sisters get together twice a year and send long messages every month.
“It’s so lovely to have Daria and Beata. We look quite alike, and we all like reading, sight seeing, and going to the forest. I share interests with them that I did not share with my adoptive parents.

“It’s funny because I now talk about ‘my sisters,’ and when I hear myself say it I’m still really surprised.”
