Dan Saunders, Regional Director in the United Kingdom grew up knowing he had an older brother but never met him. He and his older sister, Jo, heard their mother speak of this absent older half-brother many times while growing up. Dan\u2019s brother had been a mystery most of his life. His mother, Janet, was pressured to leave her first baby with the birth father who was Jamaican. At that time during the 1960\u2019s, presenting a mixed-race baby to the world came with an extreme amount of judgement. Plus, the prejudice of Janet\u2019s own mother and father also weighed heavily in her decision.<\/p>\n

Dan\u2019s older brother, Roy never knew he was not raised by his birth mother until later in life. Roy eventually learned of his birth mother Janet and began to seek her out in the early Summer of 2019. Unfortunately, by the time Roy found her, she had passed away. However, it wasn\u2019t all sad news because Roy found out about Dan and Jo. Dan has since met his biological half-brother and is enjoying making up for lost time.<\/p>\n
